He was examined as a\nwitness in the alleged bribery case concerning the construction and\nmaintenance of railway lines within the Directorate General of Railways\nat the Ministry of Transport (DJKA Kemenhub). \u201cThe examination took\nplace at the KPK\u2019s Red and White Building for RK, as Staff Advisor to\nthe Minister of Transport,\u201d stated KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to\nreporters on Monday, 4 May 2026. This is the second summons for Robby\nKurniawan in 2026. Previously, he was called as a witness in the case on\n27 April 2026 but did not attend. During Budi Karya Sumadi\u2019s era, Robby\nKurniawan served as Staff Advisor to the Minister of Transport for\nLogistics and Multimodal Transport. During Dudy Purwagandhi\u2019s time, he\nwas Staff Advisor for Regions and Environment. The case came to light\nfollowing a raid (OTT) conducted by the KPK on 11 April 2023 at the\nClass I Railway Technical Office (BTP) for Central Java Region under\nDJKA Kemenhub. Currently, the BTP Class I Central Java Region has been\nrenamed to BTP Class I Semarang. The KPK then designated 10 individuals\nas suspects who were immediately detained in connection with the alleged\ncorruption in railway track construction and maintenance projects in\nJava, Sumatra, and Sulawesi. As of 20 January 2026, the KPK has\ndesignated and detained a total of 21 suspects. The KPK has also\ndesignated two corporations as suspects in the case. The alleged\ncriminal corruption occurred in projects such as the double-track\nrailway construction from Solo Balapan-Kadipiro-Kalioso; railway track\nconstruction in Makassar, South Sulawesi; four railway track\nconstruction projects and two supervision projects in Lampegan Cianjur,\nWest Java; and the repair of level crossings in Java-Sumatra. In the\nconstruction and maintenance of these projects, it is alleged that\ncertain parties arranged the winning contractors through manipulation\nfrom the administrative process to the determination of the tender\nwinner.<\/p>",
