The Corruption Eradancy Commission (KPK) has confirmed that the name\nof the Special Envoy to the President for the Development of Youth and\nArts, Raffi Ahmad (RA), has surfaced during the investigation into\nalleged corruption within the Directorate General of Customs and Excise\nof the Ministry of Finance.<\/p>\n
Acting Director of Investigations at the KPK, Achmad Taufik Husein,\nexplained that Raffi Ahmad\u2019s name emerged in relation to his activities\nvisiting the Blueray Cargo office in the United States to entrust or\nship several electronic items to Indonesia. \u201cIt is true, there are facts\nthat Mr RA entrusted items,\u201d Taufik stated at the KPK Red and White\nBuilding, Jakarta, on Monday.<\/p>\n
However, he admitted that the KPK has not yet expanded upon this lead\nwithin the Customs investigation. \u201cPreviously, we did not develop this\ntoo far because we had not reached facts that would strengthen the claim\nthat this was part of the Blueray incident involving immigration matters\nat the Directorate General of Customs and Excise; therefore, we did not\nissue a summons,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, following further revelations during court proceedings,\nhe ensured that the KPK will investigate the matter deeply. \u201cWhether the\nfacts from the trial will become new facts that need further\ninvestigation? Yes, we will certainly conduct examinations,\u201d he\nadded.<\/p>\n
