Indonesia’s anti-graft commission has arrested a former agriculture minister accused of abuse of power, bribery and fraudulent projects involving private vendors
Indonesia’s anti-graft commission late Thursday arrested a former agriculture minister accused of abuse of power, bribery and fraudulent projects involving private vendors. The Corruption Eradication Commission, known as the KPK, confirmed Wednesday that former Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo was named a corruption suspect following his resignation from the Cabinet last week to focus on the impending legal proceedings.
The amount of state money that is alleged to have been stolen by the three men may increase as the KPK is still ramping up an investigation into alleged corruption at his ministry, Tanak said. KPK’s deputy chief, Johanis Tanak, said Limpo allegedly instructed his two subordinates to force officials at his ministry to pay him between $4,000 and $10,000 in exchange for promotions or participation in procurement projects at the ministry.
