MAKASSAR - The perpetrator of spreading hoaxes of prosecutors received bribes related to the Rizieq Shihab case trial was arrested in Takalar, South Sulawesi.

The Attorney General's team was arrested with the assistance of the National Police. The hoax spreader was arrested at 09.00 WITA.

"(Initials) F," said the Head of Public Relations of the South Sulawesi Regional Police, Kombes Sulpan, to reporters.

F, who is 18 years old, was brought to the South Sulawesi High Prosecutor's Office in Makassar. The prosecution team will continue the process.

"The prosecutor will immediately investigate, we are only helping," said Sulpan.

Previously, the Head of the Legal Information Center (Kapuspenkum) of the Attorney General's Office, Leonard Eben Ezer Simanjuntak, emphasized that the video of AF prosecutors allegedly accepting bribes at Rizieq Shihab's trial was a hoax.

"That the video of the AF prosecutor's arrest has absolutely nothing to do with and to do with the trial process of Muhammad Rizieq Shihab at the East Jakarta District Court which is currently being carried out," said Leonard, Sunday, March 21.

Leonard explained that the arrest of the prosecutor in the video did exist. However, this happened in East Java in connection with the handling of a criminal act of corruption in the sale of village treasury lands in Kali Mok Village, Kalianget District, Sumenep, East Java in November 2016.

"That the official who explained the arrest of the prosecutor AF in the video is Mr. Yulianto, SH. MM, who currently serves as the Head of the East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) High Prosecutor's Office, "he said.
