Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD stated that he would not withdraw his statement alluding to members of the DPR who brokered the case alias markus. Mahfud emphasized that the DPR markus incident had occurred in members of the board for the previous long period.
"I'm talking about markus, I'm talking about markers. In the DPR, there was an incident on 17 months 2 years 2005. It's called the ustaz incident in the thief village," Mahfud said during a meeting with Commission III of the DPR at the Senayan Parliament Complex, Jakarta, Wednesday, March 29.
Mahfud explained that at that time Attorney General Abdul Rahman Saleh at the joint trial of Commission II and III was accused of being 'good prosecutor' like the ustaz in the thief village. Still in the trial, the condition of the prosecutor's office was considered 'all dirty'.
Suddenly the accusations made the prosecutors present at the trial furious. The prosecutors then offended the members of the DPR markus even though they strongly criticized the courtroom.
"Then the prosecutors were angry with the members of the DPR, 'less of you. We are considered thieves, this is considered ustaz, you, take care of the case, you're angry with things like this, take care of things. Leave the official, leave this," Mahfud said.
"I said that, but it continues to be cut. Not the current DPR, the last DPR," said Mahfud.
"I mentioned first, Mr. Benny [Sanggota Commission III of the DPR Democratic Faction Benny K Harman] may be at the Commission II and Commission III hearings," he continued.
Benny then interrupted. Because his name was mentioned by Mahfud.
"I straightened out, at that time there was, if prof still remembers, I was the one who said 'ustaz in the thief village'. Anhar Nasution connected it, when Anhar said that the prosecutors were angry," explained Benny.

Benny then discussed Mahfud's statement at the beginning of the trial regarding members of the DPR markus. He said Mahfud's statement at that time was not in its context so it became a problem.
"So when the Coordinating Minister said that many members of the DPR were marked, they were very sensitive. So you just understand that there were many reactions," said Benny.
Benny said it was true that Mahfud straightened his statement about the DPR markus so that it became clear because what was meant by the members of the council for the previous long period.
"If it is not explained in context, it will be cut into pieces, sir. On Twitter, it will be cut into pieces, 'Many members of the DPR are Markus, said Pak Mahfud'," he continued.
Mahfud also understands that there are many bombastic news titles on social media that not only happened to Benny because he also experienced it.
"If it's a news title, sir. I'm just in the pictures of Mahfud being arrested by the KPK, especially if it's titles, there are titles every day," said Mahfud
However, Mahfud still admits that he will not withdraw his statement regarding the DPR markus during a trial with Commission III of the DPR.
"So please understand I will not withdraw the statement. Because since earlier, my experience with Pak Benny was like that, I said earlier," said Mahfud.
