KPK Searches Home of West Java DPRD Deputy Chairman Ono Surono in Connection with Bekasi Regent Case

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) searched the home of Ono Surono, Deputy Chairman of the West Java Provincial Legislative Council, located in Bandung, West Java, on Wednesday (1/4/2026). The search is connected to an alleged bribery case involving advance payments for projects in Bekasi Regency, which has implicated the dismissed Bekasi Regent, Ade Kuswara Kunang. “Today, Wednesday (1/4), investigators conducted a search at the home of ONS (Ono Surono), a member of the West Java Provincial Legislative Council, located in Bandung City,” stated KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo in his remarks on Wednesday. Budi said the search operation is still ongoing. “We will update on the developments,” he added. Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK, Asep Guntur Rahayu, explained that the bribery case began when Ade Kuswara communicated with Sarjan, a private party providing project packages in the Bekasi Regency administration. From that communication, over the past year, Regent Ade routinely requested advance payments for project packages from Sarjan through the intermediary HM Kunang. In addition to those fund flows, throughout 2025, Regent Ade is also suspected of receiving other payments from several parties, totalling Rp4.7 billion. Thus, the total money received by Regent Ade amounts to Rp14.2 billion. For their actions, Regent Ade Kuswara, together with HM Kunang as the recipient, is charged under Article 12a or Article 11 and Article 12B of the Corruption Eradication Law in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) first of the Criminal Code, as well as Article 5 paragraph (1) letter a or b or Article 13 of the Anti-Money Laundering Law in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) first of the Criminal Code. Meanwhile, Sarjan, as the giver, is charged under Article 5 paragraph (1) letter a or b or Article 13 of the Anti-Money Laundering Law.
