Back in March 2023, interesting news came from Indonesia Police Watch (IPW). The non-governmental organization submitted a report to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) regarding alleged grafts worth Rp7 billion from one Helmut Hermawan for a deputy minister through two of his personal assistants. The Deputy Minister in question is the Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights, Eddy Hiariej. We know that in recent years Helmut has had disputes with many parties regarding the ownership of PT Citra Lampia Mandiri (PT CLM) and in the beginning it is these other parties that have caught our attention. With so much going on in Indonesia lately, we almost forgot about this report, until this week. The KPK finally said that they had escalated the case to the stage of inquisition and named four suspects in the case, including Eddy, since two weeks ago.To subscribe please click here
