IM 57+ Institute Calls Harun Masiku's Search For Political Issues
JAKARTA - Indonesia Calling (IM) 57+ Institute said the search for fugitives who are former PDIP candidates Harun Masiku is full of political issues. It is suspected that this case is used as a commodity because it is always crowded in the midst of certain momentum."The issue of Harun Masiku continues to emerge at political momentum," said IM 57+ Institute Chair Praswad Nugraha to reporters in a written statement, Wednesday, June 5."This makes the public have confidence that Harun Masiku will never be caught because it seems as if he has only become a political bargain at political momentum," he continued.Praswad then questioned the search carried out by the anti-corruption commission so far. He said, the KPK had arrested many fugitives who had fled abroad.However, they seemed helpless looking for Harun. Thus, the IM 57+ Institute assessed that the efforts conveyed to the public were just a game."Is it extraordinary that Harun Masiku has not been caught until today," asked Praswad.It didn't stop there, the IM 57+ Institute also doubts that the current KPK leadership has the will to find Harun. They were asked to show their commitment because the search process was running as if they were pursuing an international fugitive."This raises great doubts that the KPK leadership has a serious commitment to uncovering Harun Masiku," he said.As previously reported, the KPK claimed to have received new information that said there were parties who were hiding the fugitive, former PDIP candidate Harun Masiku. They have summoned three witnesses and plan to summon PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto next week.Meanwhile, Harun 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 the interim replacement (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.
