JAKARTA - KPK investigator, Arif Budi Raharjo revealed the alleged leak of an investigation warrant (sprin lidik) in the bribery case of Harun Masiku. The investigation was known to have been submitted by PDIP cadres to the public.

It started when the Public Prosecutor (JPU) questioned the alleged leak. To his knowledge, the sprin lidik cannot be disseminated.

Then, Arif took the leak and was also surprised by this. In fact, it caused him to be examined by the Supervisory Board (Dewas).

In fact, the investigation of the Harun Masiku case that he made himself was always carried away.

"That's right, sir, so I need to say that related to the sprin lid, when it appeared in the media I was examined by Dewas. There I said that those who prepared from the start for the sprin lidik, gas sprin, all the documents were myself. So I packed it with a clear view, it was also the brand. And I brought it to the car, I was in it, I always sat behind the driver. I put it in front. So if for example later OTT can be brought directly, I didn't bring it in the bag, I put it there," said Arif in the trial at the Jakarta Corruption Court, Friday, May 16.

His suspicions, the investigation sprin was leaked after an incident occurred at the Police Science College (PTIK). Because, at that moment the party who had played for a team from the KPK was seen taking a photo of the investigation document.

"Well, when the investigation sprin was at the table when we were secured by the former KPK team, I knew that this was taken without our knowledge. Well, then, we finished doing the exposure for the case and went up to investigation, not how long, there was news that one of the PDIP cadres, then in the talk show that you said earlier, said, "said Arif.

"At that time I recognized that what he was shaking was still listed there was a clear view brand used to protect the investigation sprin. But it is still my guess that that that night I saw from the members at PTIK, because there were two, but I don't know if they shared with the team brought by the former investigator, but they took photos. When they took me to see, they took pictures of the digik sprin," he added.

Arif said that he had conveyed the story and suspicion to the Council. Especially his ignorance of how the PDIP cadres can have the sprin lidik until it is displayed to the public.

"Well, I conveyed that to members of the Council at that time, that I recognized, that what was shown was the investigation sprin that I brought at that time. I don't know what the story was, someone, maybe a cadre from the party, he showed it in front of the public. I also don't know what the motive was, but what is clear, in us there is an entanglement, there is a relationship," said Arif.

In the alleged bribery case, Hasto was jointly charged with advocate Donny Tri Istiqomah; the former convict of the Harun Masiku case, Saeful Bahri; and Harun Masiku gave money amounting to 57,350 Singapore dollars or equivalent to Rp600 million to Wahyu in the 2019-2020 period.

The money is allegedly given with the aim that Wahyu seeks the KPU to approve an interim replacement request (PAW) for the Elected Legislative Candidate for the Electoral Region (Dapil) of South Sumatra (Sumsel) I on behalf of DPR Members for the 2019-2024 period Riezky Aprilia to Harun Masiku.

In addition, Hasto was also charged with obstructing the investigation by ordering Harun, through the Aspiration House guard, Nur Hasan, to submerge Harun's cell phone into the water after the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) arrested members of the General Election Commission (KPU) for the 2017-2022 period Wahyu Setiawan.

Not only Harun Masiku's cellphone, Hasto is also said to have ordered his aide, Kusnadi, to drown his cell phone in anticipation of forced attempts by KPK investigators.

Hasto is threatened with a crime as regulated in Article 21 and Article 5 Paragraph (1) letter a or Article 13 of Law (UU) Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended and supplemented by Law Number 20 of 2001 in conjunction with Article 65 Paragraph (1) and Article 55 Paragraph (1) 1 jo. Article 64 Paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code.
