"We have written a letter to him some time ago," Chief of Corruption Investigation Sub-directorate of the Jakarta Metropolitan Police Adjunct Senior Commissioner Ajie Indra said here on Wednesday.
Indra said the police have proposed the ban to the Directorate General of Immigration at the Law and Human Rights Ministry.
The case is related to dwelling time at the Tanjung Priok container terminal in North Jakarta.
Five suspects have been named in the case, including the suspended director general of foreign trade identified by his initials as PP.
The other suspects are the chief of the non-import capital goods sub-directorate identified by his initials as IA, a freelance worker of the trade ministry identified by his initials as MU, and an importer identified by his initials as MU.
On Monday, the police searched the office of the Trade Ministry once again in connection with the case.
When the police searched the Trade Ministry building earlier, they seized cash in U. S. and Singapore dollars, which they believe was earned from bribery. (*)
