KPK Summons Hasto Kristiyanto Next Week Regarding Harun Masiku
JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to summon the Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto next week. Investigators have scheduled an investigation regarding the search for former PDIP candidate Harun Masiku, who is still at large and unknown.
"Information from the investigator's friend, it is possible that next week he will be summoned," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, June 4.
"But indeed we have not confirmed the time again and whether the summons will have been sent or not but has been scheduled," he continued.
Ali said Hasto's summons was related to the new information received by the anti-corruption commission regarding the whereabouts of the fugitive. Even so, he did not elaborate further on the ongoing process.
"The KPK only provides a lattice where there are parties who hide Harun. So, we continue to explore further," he said.

As previously reported, Harun Masiku is a suspect in giving bribes to former KPU commissioner Wahyu Setiawan. This gift was given so that he could sit as a member of the DPR through interim shifts (PAW).
He has been on the wanted list (DPO) since January 29, 2020. Most recently, the KPK informed that the National Central Bureau (NCB) of Interpol Indonesia had issued a red notice on behalf of Harun Masiku on Friday, July 30, 2023.
The KPK promised to continue looking for the fugitive as long as there was no record of death. This statement was conveyed by the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Johanis Tanak.
"Administratively, according to the provisions of the Population Law, if someone dies, it is recorded, reported to the population. Yes, right," Johanis told reporters as quoted on the Indonesian KPK YouTube, Thursday, January 19.
"If the population is formally absent, it means that it is not dead. It is still alive and will still be sought, that is according to the population law," he concluded.
