Today The KPK Summons 2 Of The Ex-Wamenkumham's Subordinates Who Are Suspects

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) summoned two of the subordinates of former Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkumham) Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej or Eddy Hiariej, Yogi Arie Rukmana and Yosi Andika Mulyadi today, Tuesday, January 9.

Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said Yogi and Yosi were summoned as witnesses even though they were suspects in the case of receiving gratuities that ensnared Eddy Hiariej. So, no detention will be carried out after examination.

"Both of them were examined as witnesses for the case files of other suspects," Ali told reporters in a written statement, Tuesday, January 9.

Ali said Yogi and Yosi were still being investigated by investigators. It has not been detailed what material will be extracted from the two.

"(Both, ed) were present (at the KPK's Red and White Building, ed) and currently an investigation is being carried out by the investigative team," he said.

Previously reported, the KPK officially announced Eddy Hiariej as a suspect. He is suspected of receiving up to IDR 8 billion which was divided several times for a number of purposes involving the boss of PT CLM, Helmut Hermawan.

Eddy's first acceptance was made after he agreed to consult the general legal administration of the PT CLM ownership dispute. At that time Helmut gave Rp4 billion.

Then, he also received Rp3 billion to stop the legal process involving Helmut at the National Police Criminal Investigation Unit through the issuance of a letter of termination of investigation (SP3).

Finally, Eddy is suspected of using his power as Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights to unblock PT CLM in the Ministry of Law and Human Rights' Legal Entity Administration System (SABH). He then received Rp1 billion which was used to run for Chairman of the Central Management of the Indonesian Tennis Association (PP Pelti).

The KPK suspects that Eddy made this acceptance through two people as representatives of himself. They are lawyers named Yosi Andika Mulyadi and Yogi Arie Rukmana who are his personal assistants who are also suspects in this case.
