JAKARTA (Reuters) - A graft scandal that has engulfed the top levels of Indonesia's oil ministry widened on Wednesday, with the anti-corruption agency identifying the head of parliament's energy committee and a company executive as suspects in the case.

The Corruption Eradication Agency (KPK) added the two suspects to its investigation of the former head of energy regulator SKKMigas, Rudi Rubiandini, who was sentenced to seven years in prison last month for accepting more than $1 million (596,323 pounds) in bribes.
