The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to summon Muhaimin Iskandar alias Cak Imin in the corruption case in the procurement of the Indonesian labor protection system (TKI). He will be questioned as a witness for serving as Minister of Manpower (Menaker) for the 2009-2014 period.

Sources said that Cak Imin had certainly received a summons from investigators. The general chairman of the National Awakening Party (PKB) will be questioned today, Tuesday, September 5.

"The call was received last week, really," said the source when talking to VOI via text message, Monday, September 4 evening.

Meanwhile, the Head of the KPK News Section, Ali Fikri, has a mechanism that regulates summons that must be delivered at least three days before the examination is carried out. "And we make sure that all witnesses summoned on Tuesday have been given a summons," he told reporters.

Even so, Ali did not want to clearly say that Cak Imin would be examined. He only asked the public to monitor the process of examining the alleged corruption that was running.

"Tomorrow we are waiting (the examination of Cak Imin, ed). Once again, we hope (the witnesses, ed) will be present in accordance with the summons that have been given or sent," said Ali.

The opportunity to summon Cak Imin has indeed been conveyed by Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur. He said anyone who knew the case would be questioned without exception.

"All officials at the tempus (time) it is possible for us to ask for information," said Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Friday, September 1. "Why? Because we have to get the clearest possible information, don't let A accuse B, and we don't ask for information about B then B, it's odd," he continued.

Although the KPK has not yet submitted it, the Secretary of the Planning and Development Agency of the Ministry of Manpower I Nyoman Darmanta is reportedly involved. The value of the information system procurement project which is suspected to be the result of the perpetrators reaching around Rp. 20 billion. Deputy Chairman Alexander Marwata said that this system was allegedly corrupted so that in the end it could not be used to monitor migrant workers. Only computers can be used to type and so on. But, the system itself is not running," he said to reporters in Jakarta, Thursday, August 24.
