Abstract

This article examines the complex legal dimensions of the suspect designation of the former Minister of Education in the Chromebook procurement corruption case. It aims to clearly demarcate the critical boundary between legitimate public policy discretion and abuse of power implicating criminal liability. Utilizing a normative legal research method with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, the study analyzes both procedural and material aspects of the case. Procedurally, the suspect designation fulfills the minimum requirement of sufficient initial evidence through authentic documents and witness testimonies. Materially, the ministerial policy systematically locking technical specifications to a single operating system, deliberately ignoring internal technical studies, demonstrates a potential shift from valid discretion to an act of authority abuse. The required malicious intent is constructed from deliberate actions favoring specific corporations, while state loss is proven through absolute failure to achieve optimal value from money usage. This firmly establishes highly crucial modern Indonesian precedents.
