PDI-P politician Guntur Romli denied the statement by the Minister of Cooperatives (Menkop), Budi Arie, who said that PDIP and the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Budi Gunawan, were the masterminds of the 50 percent 'setor' framing of online gambling profits (judol).
According to him, Budi Arie's statement was only slander without basis or evidence.
"At the urging of input from all PDI-P cadres who are angry with Budi Arie's slander," Guntur Romli told reporters at the Jakarta Corruption Court, Monday, May 26.
So, with this statement, the PDI-P will take legal steps. Currently, his party is still gathering a number of evidences.
"We will take legal steps against the slander made by Budi Arie because this is related to the reputation of the party slandered by Budi Arie," said Guntur.
Guntur emphasized that the appearance of Budi Arie's name was not the result of framing. Rather, it is purely the result of the prosecution of the Prosecutor's Office as outlined in the indictment.
"Therefore, we strongly condemn the slander from Budi Arie that the information on the 50 percent share of online gambling comes from the prosecutor's official indictment, not from us. That's official from the prosecutor's office," said Guntur.
However, it is not certain where PDIP will report the allegations of Budi Arie. This is still an internal discussion of the party.
