His Mother Becomes A Suspect, Ronald Tannur's Father's Turn To Be Examined At The East Java Prosecutor's Office

The Attorney General's Office examined Gregorius Ronald Tannur's father, Edward Tannur, at the East Java High Prosecutor's Office as a witness after his mother, Meirizka Widjaja, was named a suspect.

Head of the East Java Prosecutor's Office, Mia Amiati, said that the investigation of Edward Tannur was still related to the alleged gratification or bribery case to the panel of judges at the Surabaya District Court and former Supreme Court officials.

"(His father came) For questioning. For the substance, we don't know," Mia said as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, November 5.

Regarding the progress of the investigation conducted by the AGO, Mia said there was a common thread between lawyer Ronald Tannur (Lisa Rahmat) and ZR (Zarof Ricar) who found a role, as well as Ronald Tannur's mother.

"So his mother was examined last night and immediately named a suspect," he said.

As for Edward Tannur, he is currently still being examined as a witness.

Kajati received a temporary report that Edward Tannur was not directly involved in the case.

"The results of the investigation by the Attorney General's Office of Jampidsus who actively participated in committing bribery so far have a common thread, only his mother. Meanwhile, his father was not involved," he said.

Regarding the flow of funds or money used to bribe the panel of judges to former MA officials, Mia said that Meirizka had prepared the money.

"The flow of funds is from her mother. What is clear is that her mother played a role," Mia said.

Regarding the details of the examination of Edward, Kajati could not reveal further because of the authority of the AGO investigators.

"Currently it is still in the process of being investigated. We are only facilitating," added Mia.

On Monday, November 4, the AGO named Ronald Tannur's mother, Meirizka Widjaja, as a suspect in the alleged judge's bribery case.

Investigators have previously named five suspects, namely three judges from the Surabaya District Court, Erintuah Damanik, Mangapul and Heru Hanindyo, one lawyer named Lisa Rahmat, and one former MA official, Zarof Ricar.
