Cases Of Case Handling Bribe At The Supreme Court Will Develop The KPK If There Are New Facts

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has the opportunity to develop a case of alleged bribery in handling cases at the Court (MA). The KPK does not hesitate to move if it finds new facts in court.

"In principle, when legal facts were found from the trial process, the KPK would definitely develop them," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Monday, February 6.

The trial of this case has only been held against two lawyers, namely Theodorus Yosep Parera and Eko Suparno. Both of them became accused of bribing two inactive Supreme Court justices, Sudrajad Dimyati and Gazalba Saleh.

Returning to Ali, he said, prosecutors at this trial will record all the facts presented. The KPK ensures that the investigation of bribery cases in the Supreme Court will be carried out thoroughly.

However, they will move according to the evidence they have. "The KPK never stops solving a case when it finds new evidence in the process of investigation, prosecution, and trial," he said.

"We will definitely follow up," continued Ali.

In this case, Yosep Parera and Eko were charged with bribing Sudrajad Dimyati and Gazalba with a nominal value of 310 thousand Singapore dollars.

The money was given through an intermediary, namely Gazalba staff, Redhy Novarisza; two Judicial Judges Prasetio Nugroho and Elly Tri Pangestu; as well as three civil servants (PNS) at the Mak Kepanitera Desy Yustria, Nurmanto Akmal and Muhajir Habibie.

Gazalba received 110 thousand Singapore dollars. This gift was given through Desy, Nurmanto, Redhy and Prasetyo.

Meanwhile, Sudrajad received 200 thousand Singapore dollars. The giving was made through Desy, Muhajir, and Elly.
