The spokesman of the prosecution office Marcos Simaremare said here on Tuesday that he could not give details about the loss suffered by the state as a result of the alleged corruption.
Data collected showed the state suffered a loss of Rp15.3 billion in the illegal procurement of 18 hectares of land for the PLTA Asahan 3 hydro-power plant built in the village of Batu Mamak in the regency of Toba Samosir.
The land, the management of the PLN unit claimed to have acquired from local people turned out to be part of a protected forest in that area.
Marcos said the office began by summoning some of the villagers for questioning about the illegal process of selling lands to PT PLN for the power project, PLTA Asahan 3.
"A team of prosecutors has been formed to investigate the corruption case," he said.(IGT)
