Anies Baswedan And Chairman Of DKI DPRD Examined By KPK Tomorrow, Deputy Governor Riza: We Believe We Are Not Involved

JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria admitted that he did not know the presence or absence of DKI Governor Anies Baswedan and Chairman of the DKI DPRD Prasetio Edi Marsudi on the summons for the KPK examination tomorrow.

"I don't know yet (Anies and Prasetio will attend or not). I'll check the information again later," said Riza at DKI City Hall, Central Jakarta, Monday, September 20.

Although they do not know the certainty of the presence of the two leaders in DKI, Riza, namely Anies and Prasetio, are law-abiding officials. This is because Prasetio has been questioned by the KPK on other cases. Meanwhile, Anies was also questioned by the police for the Rizieq Shihab crowd case some time ago.

"We will obey any legal process. We will provide clarification if necessary," said Riza.

In fact, Riza believes that Anies and Prasetio are not involved in the corruption case in land acquisition in Munjul, East Jakarta.

"In principle, we believe we are not involved in cases being handled by the KPK regarding land cases that are currently being processed at the KPK," he said.

Separately, the Head of the DKI Legal Bureau, Yayan Yuhanah, did not want to comment on Anies' summons to the KPK building tomorrow. "No response," Yayan said in a text message.

Previously, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) scheduled an examination of the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan and Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD Prasetyo Edi Marsudi.

Both will be questioned on Tuesday, September 21, at the KPK's Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta. Anies and Prasetyo Edi will be examined as witnesses to complete the case file belonging to the former President Director of Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya, Yoory Corneles.

"The Investigative Team has scheduled the summoning of witnesses for Tsk YRC et al, including Anies Baswedan (Governor of DKI Jakarta) and Prasetyo Edi Marsudi (Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD) to be present on Tuesday, September 21 at the KPK's Red and White Building," said Acting KPK Spokesperson. Ali Fikri's Enforcement Division.

This summons, he continued, was needed to make the actions of the perpetrators of the riot clear and clear. Moreover, currently investigators are continuing to complete Yoory's file and will call a number of witnesses.

"KPK hopes that the witnesses who have been properly summoned by the investigative team will be able to attend according to the time stated in the summons," said Ali.

"The summoning of a person as a witness, of course, is based on the needs of the investigation so that from the statements of the witnesses the actions of the suspects become clearer and clearer," he added.
