KPK Reviews Financial Documents in Advertising Case, Opens Possibility of Re-Summoning RK
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has revealed progress in investigating the alleged corruption case concerning advertising procurement that implicates former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil (RK) as one of the examined parties. The KPK is currently reviewing financial documents related to this case.
“Yes, it’s possibly being examined, being studied—what’s there from the data on financial documents and so on. Yes, perhaps the investigators are first confirming the status and so forth before another summons can be carried out,” said KPK Chairman Setyo Budiyanto at the KPK building in Kuningan, South Jakarta, on Tuesday (7/4/2026).
Setyo stated that he has not yet received a report from the investigators regarding when RK will be summoned again. He refrained from speculating on RK’s status.
“I haven’t been confirmed by the investigators on when the summons or examination will take place. For now, I certainly can’t explain because everything is in process,” he said.
Previously, the KPK revealed that it had begun investigating RK’s activities abroad. The activities being delved into by the KPK are those during his tenure as West Java Governor.
KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo explained that this deepening began from the results of the KPK’s investigation into communications conducted by RK with BJB parties. From there, according to Budi, the investigators are delving into all of RK’s activities abroad during his time as West Java Governor.
“Well, from here, the KPK then traces the activities of Mr RK as governor at that time, both domestic and overseas activities,” Budi revealed to reporters at the KPK building in Kuningan, South Jakarta, on Tuesday (3/2).
Budi also disclosed that the investigators found allegations of foreign exchange (valas) exchange activities conducted by RK not only abroad. However, RK also carried out foreign exchange exchange activities domestically.
“Yes, there are several domestically as well. Yes, there are a few. That’s the period from 2021-2024,” he said.
In this case, the KPK has named five suspects. They are Yuddy Renaldi, as former President Director of Bank BJB; Widi Hartono (WH), as former Head of the Corporate Secretary Division of Bank BJB; and Ikin Asikin Dulmanan (IAD), Suhendrik (S), and Sophan Jaya Kusuma (RSJK) as private parties.
The actions of all five are alleged to have caused state losses of up to Rp 222 billion. The KPK suspects that the funds entered as fulfilment of non-budgetary needs.
