Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named three coal mining companies as corporate suspects in a bribery and gratification case linked to former Kutai Kartanegara regent Rita Widyasari, the agency said on Thursday as quoted by local media.
KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo said the companies identified were PT Sinar Kumala Naga (SKN), PT Alamjaya Barapratama (ABP) and PT Bara Kumala Sakti (BKS), all operating in the coal producing Kutai Kartanegara region of East Kalimantan.
The designation follows an expansion of the investigation into alleged gratification payments tied to coal production volumes in the regency, where Rita had previously been named a suspect.
