Eni Maulani Saragih (born 13 May 1970) is an Indonesian politician who was a member of the People's Representative Council. She was first elected in the 2014 legislative election as a member of Golkar. She was arrested by the Corruption Eradication Commission in 2018, being accused of having accepted bribery, and was imprisoned until 2022.

Background

[edit]

Eni was born in Jakarta on 13 May 1970. She completed her elementary and middle school in West Jakarta, and her high school at SMA Negeri 70 Jakarta [id]. She later graduated from IKIP Jakarta (today Jakarta State University) in 1994, from an economic institute in 2008, and earned a masters from Trisakti University in 2013.[1][2]

Career

[edit]

In the 2014 legislative election, she was elected to the People's Representative Council as a member of Golkar after winning 84.837 votes.[3] She represented the 10th East Java constituency, which included the regencies of Lamongan and Gresik.[4] She was appointed as the deputy chairman of the parliament's seventh commission in April 2018, after previously being assigned to the second commission.[2]

Arrest

[edit]

On 13 July 2018, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) apprehended Eni at the home of Social Minister Idrus Marham, along with 8 others.[2][5] She was named a suspect and accused of having received bribes related to the construction of a coal-powered power plant in Riau, and that Social Minister Idrus Marham was heavily involved.[6] KPK later named Idrus as a suspect as well, prompting his resignation.[7]

She returned Rp 500 million (US$34,000) to investigators and was reportedly being cooperative, with her proposing to be a justice collaborator.[8][9] She was sentenced to six years in prison in March 2019.[10] Her replacement Edy Kuntadi was sworn into the parliament on 21 November 2018.[11] On 17 August 2022, she received a remission due to Indonesia's independence day, and she was released on the same day.[12]

Family

[edit]

She is married to M Al Khadziq, who was elected as the regent of Temanggung in 2018.[13] The couple has three children.[14]
