JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) confirmed that it received a report on the alleged meeting between detainees in the bribery case management case at the Supreme Court and the KPK leadership. This report went into their hands last week. "(Received the report, ed) two days ago, three days ago," said KPK Supervisory Board member Albertina Ho to reporters at the ACLC KPK Building, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Tuesday, September 12. Albertina did not want to specify who the leader was meeting with the detainee. He only said the report was being studied. "Yes, the letter has been received by the KPK Council. So it is in the process," he said. Rumors circulated that a prisoner in the bribery case for case management at the Supreme Court (MA) reportedly went up to the 15th floor of the KPK Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta. This location is where the KPK leadership is based. Responding to this news, the Head of the KPK News Section, Ali Fikri, did not deny or confirm. He only explained that the suspect's examination is usually on the 2nd floor. "The detention sites were on the 2nd floor. That's what we know," he told reporters at the KPK's Red and White House, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta. Ali didn't want to talk any further about the news. "This is information from friends (media, ed) themselves," said Ali.

"I mean, we can only explain earlier, so far in examining every detainee in his capacity as a suspect, of course, both as witnesses are always carried out on the second floor," he concluded.
