The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is considering the forced summoning of model and former expert staffer to Member of Parliament Heri Gunawan, Fitri Assiddikki, after she failed to appear for her fourth summons today.

Fitri is a witness in a case involving alleged gratifications and Money Laundering (TPPU) related to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) social programmes at Bank Indonesia (BI) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK).

KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo stated that investigators are considering next steps, including the possibility of issuing a summons order to bring the individual in. Speaking at the KPK Merah Putih Building in Jakarta on Tuesday (23/6), Budi noted that investigators are evaluating whether to coordinate a new schedule or proceed with a formal order to bring the witness.

Fitri was previously summoned for examination on 9, 11, 15, and 23 June 2026, but has failed to attend any of these sessions. Budi explained that the investigators’ focus remains on strengthening evidence regarding the alleged misappropriation of CSR funds from BI and OJK, as well as conducting asset tracing.

He added that funds intended for social programmes were allegedly diverted into private pockets and flowed to various parties. The KPK has named Heri Gunawan and his parliamentary colleague, Satori, as suspects in the alleged gratification and money laundering case. Both remain active in parliament with their full rights intact, as they have not yet been detained since their suspect status was announced in August 2025.

During the investigation, the KPK has examined numerous witnesses from the DPR, BI, and OJK to complete the case files. The commission is committed to gathering all evidence regarding the alleged misuse of social programmes by Satori and Heri Gunawan.

Satori and Heri Gunawan are charged with violating Article 12 B of the Corruption Eradication Law in conjunction with several articles of the Criminal Code, as well as the Law on the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering.

Satori is alleged to have received Rp12.52 billion, sourced from BI via PSBI activities, OJK via financial literacy programmes, and other partners of Commission XI of the DPR. He allegedly laundered this money for personal use, including deposits, land purchases, showroom construction, and vehicle acquisitions. Satori is also accused of manipulating bank transactions through a regional bank to disguise deposit placements.

Heri Gunawan is alleged to have received a total of Rp15.86 billion from similar sources. He is accused of laundering the funds by transferring receipts through a foundation he manages into his personal account via transfers. He allegedly instructed subordinates to open new accounts for cash deposits. The funds were reportedly used for personal interests, including the construction of a restaurant, managing beverage outlets, and purchasing property and vehicles.
