KPK Seized Rp2 Billion Returned by KAI Chief in SPBU Case
Indonesia’s anti-corruption agency, the KPK, seized Rp2 billion from KAI chief Bobby Rasyidin in a case about digitalising Pertamina fuel stations.
The project under investigation covers the 2018–2023 period.
The KPK says Rasyidin received the money from someone who later became a suspect and returned it after learning it might be linked to the case.
The agency says it seized the money in August 2025, before Rasyidin became head of state railway company KAI.
Rasyidin says reports about him are untrue and has not given further details.
The KPK has detained three suspects in the case, including two former Telkom executives and a private-sector figure.
The investigation is continuing, and the KPK had previously worked with Indonesia’s state audit agency to calculate possible losses to public funds.
Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) says it seized Rp2 billion from KAI chief Bobby Rasyidin in a corruption investigation into Pertamina’s fuel-station digitalisation project.
The KPK says the money was allegedly received from one of the case’s suspects and was handed over by Bobby after he learned the giver was a suspect.
The commission says the seizure took place in August 2025, before Bobby became KAI chief.
Bobby said reports about him were not true, but did not explain further.
The KPK has detained three suspects in the case.
