The KPK has conducted searches related to the corruption case ensnaring West Lombok Regent Lalu Ahmad Zaini. Most recently, the KPK searched the regent’s office and official residence.

“Several locations were searched, including the Regent’s office, the Regent’s official residence, and also the Public Works and Housing (PUPR) office,” said KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo in a written statement on Friday (24/7/2026).

The KPK seized project documents from the West Lombok PUPR Agency. The documents are suspected to be linked to the case involving Lalu Ahmad Zaini.

“Among the items seized were documents related to projects at the PUPR Agency, because this investigation concerns an alleged conflict of interest involving the Regent and a man named SUD (Sudirman) in connection with PUPR projects,” he said.

“The documents secured during this search operation will of course be examined and analysed to strengthen the evidence already gathered by investigators,” he added.

Previously, the KPK seized an Alphard vehicle alleged to be a bribe from a businessman to Regent Lalu Ahmad. The car was initially seized during a sting operation at Lalu Ahmad’s house and is currently being held at the Mobile Brigade headquarters in NTB.

The KPK has named West Lombok Regent Lalu Ahmad Zaini as a suspect in an alleged corruption case for involvement in projects and receiving bribes. The total received is suspected to reach Rp 12.4 billion in the form of cash and goods.

“Based on sufficient preliminary evidence, the KPK escalated this case to the investigation stage and named three people as suspects,” said acting Director of KPK Investigations Achmad Taufik Husein at a press conference at the KPK building on Jalan Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, on Tuesday (21/7).

They are:

  1. Lalu Ahmad Zaini as Regent of West Lombok

  2. Sudirman as President Director of PT Air Minum Giri Menang Lombok Barat (PT AMGM)

  3. Alvonsus Gani as President Director of PT Meconel Sistim Instrument (PT MSI)

The following are details of the bribes received by Lalu Ahmad Zaini:
