Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has stated that it is delving into the branches of PT Blueray Cargo (BR), the forwarder or provider of import goods delivery services, in the investigation of the alleged bribery and gratification case related to the import of counterfeit or imitation goods within the Directorate General of Customs and Excise of the Ministry of Finance.

“Because PT BR has branches in several locations,” said KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to journalists in Jakarta on Wednesday.

Therefore, Budi said that the KPK has scheduled the examination of witnesses from Blueray Cargo with initials SP and EWW on 31 March 2026.

“Testimony from these witnesses is certainly needed to determine whether the practices carried out in Jakarta are duplicated or also conducted at other PT BR branches related to the importation process or goods entering Indonesia,” he said.

However, he stated that the two witnesses in the Customs case did not comply with the KPK summons on that date.

“Of course, the investigators will coordinate to reschedule the examination for the individuals concerned,” he said.

Previously, on 4 February 2026, the KPK conducted a sting operation (OTT) within the Directorate General of Customs and Excise of the Ministry of Finance.

On the same date, the KPK revealed that one of the individuals arrested in the OTT was Rizal, Head of the West Sumatra Regional Customs Office.

On 5 February 2026, the KPK announced that six out of 17 people arrested were designated as suspects in the alleged bribery and gratification case related to the import of counterfeit or imitation goods within Customs.

They are Rizal (RZL) as Director of Enforcement and Investigation of Customs for the period 2024-January 2026, Head of Subdirectorate of Enforcement and Investigation Intelligence of Customs Sisprian Subiaksono (SIS), and Head of Customs Intelligence Section Orlando Hamonangan (ORL).

Furthermore, the owner of Blueray Cargo John Field (JF), Chairman of the Import Documentation Team of Blueray Cargo Andri (AND), and Operational Manager of Blueray Cargo Dedy Kurniawan (DK).

On 26 February 2026, the KPK announced Budiman Bayu Prasojo (BBP), Head of the Excise Intelligence Section of the Directorate of Enforcement and Investigation of Customs, as a new suspect in the case.

On 27 February 2026, the KPK announced that it is delving into alleged corruption in excise management. This deepening investigation was conducted particularly after the seizure of Rp5.19 billion in five suitcases from a safe house in Ciputat, South Tangerang, Banten, which is suspected to originate from customs and excise.
