JAKARTA - Investigators from the Tipidkor Sub-Directorate of the Polda Metro Jaya coordinate with the Forensic Laboratory Center (Puslabor) in handling cases of alleged extortion by the KPK leadership against former Agriculture Minister Syahrul Yasin Limpo or SYL. The team explored the electronic evidence that had been obtained.

"We also carry out coordination effectively, communicating in coordination with the National Police Laboratory regarding several electronic evidences that have been previously confiscated by investigators for further laboratory tests and analysis," said Director of Special Criminal Investigation at Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Safri Simanjuntak to reporters, Friday, October 27.

But it was not conveyed in detail about the electronic evidence. It is reasonable to suspect that the evidence can reveal the suspect in the extortion case.

Not only deepening evidence, the investigative team also asked for expert information. Some of them include criminal experts, procedural law experts, and micro-expression experts.

In addition, it is certain that KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri will be questioned again. However, regarding the time, the police have not mentioned it.

Firli was originally examined for seven hours on October 24. However, investigators believe that they still need information because there are several things that will be explored.

"We are on the agenda. We still need some additional information from FB's brother as chairman of the KPK RI," said Ade.

In the process of investigating the alleged extortion case against Syahrul Yasin Limpo, 55 witnesses have been questioned. Some of them are SYL's driver and personal aide, Deputy Chairperson of the KPK for the 2007-2011 period Mochammad Jasin.
