KPK Seizes Container from Customs Case Containing Spare Parts, Affiliated with PT Blueray
It is suspected to belong to an importer affiliated with PT BR, explained KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to reporters at the KPK’s Merah Putih building in South Jakarta on Wednesday (11/5/2026).
Budi stated that the container has been held for 30 days at Tanjung Mas Port. The KPK will investigate the reasons why the container has not been released from the port for a full month.
“Of course, we will check the clearance process and the permitting process with the Directorate General of Customs and Excise. Because this container has been there for about a month, the clearance documents have not yet been submitted to allow it to exit the port,” Budi revealed.
Budi also explained that the container contains vehicle spare parts. These items, according to Budi, are classified as prohibited or restricted goods in import and export activities.
“It contains vehicle spare parts. These are certainly items that fall into the lartas category, meaning prohibited or restricted,” he stated.
Meanwhile, investigators are still tracing the owner of the container. Confirmation from PT Blueray will also be sought by the investigators.
“For the owner, we will of course need confirmation from PT BR to explain and clarify who the importer owner of this container is. The initial information we received is that this container is suspected to be owned by an importer who has an affiliation with PT BR, yes, that PT BR is suspected to be like a group, yes,” Budi clarified.
“So it is also suspected to have several branch companies that indeed have business classifications in import activities, yes. Not only as a forwarder but also as an importer of goods. Now we will trace what that affiliation is like, then the processes and mechanisms in the field, and also its relation to the Customs and Excise SOP,” he added.
The container was seized when the KPK conducted a series of searches in the Semarang area, Central Java, on 11-12 May 2026. The seizure of this container was carried out after the KPK finished searching the home of a businessman named Heri Sutiyono alias Heri ‘Black’.
Regarding this corruption case of imports at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise, the KPK initially named six people as suspects after conducting an arrest operation at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC) in a bribery import case. The KPK seized evidence in this bribery case with a total value of Rp 40.5 billion.
The evidence seized by the KPK includes cash in rupiah amounting to Rp 1.89 billion, cash in USD amounting to 182,900, cash in SGD amounting to 1.48 million, cash in JPY amounting to 55,000, precious metals weighing 2.5 kg or equivalent to Rp 7.4 billion, precious metals weighing 2.8 kg or equivalent to Rp 8.3 billion, and one luxury watch valued at Rp 138 million.
Three private parties in this case have already undergone trials. Those three are John Field as the leader of Blueray Cargo, Deddy Kurniawan Sukolo as the Operational Manager of Blueray Cargo, and Andri as the head of the Blueray Cargo document team.
The three leaders of PT Blueray Cargo are accused of providing money of Rp 61.3 billion in the form of Singapore dollars and providing various facilities as well as luxury goods amounting to Rp 1.8 billion. The KPK prosecutors consider the actions of the defendants to violate Article 605 paragraph 1 letter a and Article 606 paragraph 1 of Law Number 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code.
