The two special staff being questioned were Caswiyono Rusydie Cakrawangsa and Risharyudi Triwibowo. They were questioned by investigators at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.
"The witness was investigated for their duties and functions, their knowledge is related to the extortion of foreign workers and their knowledge of the flow of funds from extortion," said KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo, Tuesday, June 10.
