apahabar.com, BANJARMASIN – The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has actually ensnared the inactive Hulu Sungai Utara (HSU) Regent Abdul Wahid with the article on money laundering (TPPU).
“It is suspected that there were several receipts of suspect AW who were deliberately disguised and changed their shape and transferred to other parties,” said Acting KPK Spokesperson, Ali Fikri to apahabar.com, Tuesday (28/12).

The allegation emerged after the KPK investigated and analyzed a series of evidence found by the investigative team in the first-class bribery and gratification case by the regent.
“From the findings of this evidence, the Corruption Eradication Commission has again named suspect AW as a suspect in the alleged money laundering offenses case,” said the man with a background in prosecutors.
TPPU, he said, was applied by the KPK because it found sufficient initial evidence. The KPK detected a change in the shape of the proceeds of corruption against Wahid’s assets such as property, vehicles and money in bank accounts.
“Information that we received, it is suspected that there are parties who deliberately try to unilaterally take over the assets that are suspected to belong to AW,” he said.
