Jakarta - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has summoned the Head of Subdivision at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise, Ministry of Finance, with the initials AFY, and the Director of PT Infinity International, Ali Susanto (AS), for questioning as witnesses in the investigation of an alleged corruption case within Customs and Excise. “The KPK has scheduled the examination of witnesses AFY, a customs civil servant, and AS, the Director of PT Infinity International,” KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo told journalists in Jakarta on Wednesday. Budi stated that both witnesses were scheduled to be examined by anti-corruption investigators at the KPK’s Merah Putih Building in Jakarta. According to KPK records as of 14:22 WIB, witness AFY complied with the summons, arriving at 10:02 WIB. Meanwhile, it was not yet known whether Ali Susanto had complied. Previously, on 4 February 2026, the KPK conducted a sting operation within the Directorate General of Customs and Excise. A day later, the KPK named six individuals as suspects in a case of alleged bribery and gratuities related to the import of counterfeit or KW goods within Customs and Excise. They are Rizal (RZL), Director of Enforcement and Investigation at Customs and Excise for the 2024-January 2026 period, who is currently serving as Head of the Customs and Excise Regional Office for Western Sumatra; Head of the Subdirectorate of Intelligence for Enforcement and Investigation at Customs and Excise, Sisprian Subiaksono (SIS); and Head of the Customs and Excise Intelligence Section, Orlando Hamonangan (ORL). Additionally, the KPK named Blueray Cargo owner John Field (JF), Blueray Cargo Import Documentation Team Leader Andri (AND), and Blueray Cargo Operational Manager Dedy Kurniawan (DK) as suspects. On 26 February 2026, the KPK named another suspect, namely the Head of the Excise Intelligence Section of the Directorate of Enforcement and Investigation at Customs and Excise, Budiman Bayu Prasojo (BBP). Subsequently, on 27 February 2026, the KPK revealed it was investigating alleged corruption in excise management, following the seizure of Rp5.19 billion in cash from five suitcases at a safe house in Ciputat, South Tangerang, believed to be linked to the case. On 6 May 2026, John Field, Andri, and Dedy Kurniawan underwent their first trial as defendants. The name of the Director General of Customs and Excise, Djaka Budi Utama, then emerged in the indictment for the three defendants. In the indictment, Djaka Budi, along with Rizal, Sisprian Subiaksono, and Orlando Hamonangan, was said to have met with cargo entrepreneurs at a hotel in Jakarta in July 2025. One of the entrepreneurs present was John Field. Then, on 20 May 2026, the KPK Public Prosecutor stated that Djaka Budi Utama allegedly received bribes amounting to 213,600 Singapore dollars. On 12 June 2026, John Field admitted in court to giving money totalling up to Rp21 billion to Djaka Budi.
