The antisocial world in the country was shocked by the historical impression of the Corruption Eradication Commission or KPK. The large corruption case at Bank Indonesia Liquidity Assistance (BLBI) was declared as an order to stop the investigation or was commonly abbreviated as SP3.

The decision to determine the BLBI case with SP3 was the first issued by the KPK. Since the KPK was founded in 2003, no SP3s have been issued; however, the BLBI case became the KPK’s first SP3.

“Today we will announce the termination of investigations related to the alleged corruption committed by suspect SN (Sjamsul Nursalim),” KPK Vice President Alexander Marwata said Thursday at a press conference at his office, Jalan Kuningan Persada, in southern Jakarta (1/4/2021).

In the big BLBI case, Sjamsul Nursalim and his wife, Itjih Nursalim, were charged with the suspect because they were suspected of being the enriched party in the BLBI case, which was indicated to have caused state financial losses of 4.58 trillion rupees. Sjamsul is the majority shareholder of Bank Dagang Nasional Indonesia (BDNI).

Sjamsul and Itjih were accused of article 2, paragraph 1, or article 3 of Law 31 of 1999, as amended by Law 20 of 2001, relative to the eradication of corruption, in relation to article 55, paragraph 1 a 1, of the Penal Code.

The story of Sjamsul and Itjih did not stop at determining the suspect in the BLBI case, his whereabouts have not been arrested by the KPK. Sjamsul and Itjih are known to be in Singapore, but the KPK has not brought charges against them.

The KPK proposed several reasons to stop investigating the BLBI case that caught Sjamsul Nursalim and Itjih. The pretext of the KPK is to stop the investigations for legal certainty.

“The termination of this investigation is in accordance with the provisions of article 40 of the Law of the Commission for the Eradication of Corruption as part of the application of the law, so that in each case the management will always comply with the applicable legal regulations. “Alexander Marwata said.

“The termination of this investigation is part of the existence of legal certainty in the process of applying the law as provided in article 5 of the Law of the Commission for the Eradication of Corruption, that is, in the performance of its functions and authorities, the KPK is based on the principle of legal certainty, “Alexander added.

The KPK explained that one of the reasons for issuing SP3 against Sjamsul Nursalim and Itjih was the separate decision received by former IBRA president Syafruddin Arsyad Temenggung. The KPK has submitted a review of the release decision, but it has been rejected.

“Taking into account the provisions of article 11 of the KPK Law, in the performance of the tasks referred to in article 6, letter e, the KPK is empowered to carry out investigations, investigations and prosecutions of criminal acts of corruption involving law enforcement officials, state officials and others related to criminal acts of corruption carried out by law enforcement officials or state officials The KPK concluded that the conditions for the performance of state officials in the case they were not fulfilled while the suspects from the SN and ISN had the capacity of persons who participated in the act together with the SAT as state officials, the KPK decided to stop investigating the case on behalf of the suspects from SN and ISN ” Alexander said.
