JAKARTA - Investigators from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) questioned former Kutai Kertanegara Regent Rita Widyasari on Monday, November 15.
Rita is being investigated for alleged bribery related to the handling of a corruption case in Central Lampung that ensnared former Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Azis Syamsuddin.
"The investigation was carried out at the Tangerang Class IIA Prison on behalf of Rita Widyasari, the former regent of Kutai Kertanegara," said Acting KPK Spokesperson for Prevention Ipi Maryati to reporters, Monday, November 15.
Apart from Rita, the KPK also examined two other witnesses at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta. The two witnesses examined were the former General Chairperson of the PP Youth Forces of the Golkar Party or Azis Syamsuddin's right-hand men, Aliza Gunado and Eddy Sujarwo.
Ipi has not specified what investigators will investigate. However, in the trial with Stepanus Robin as the defendant, a number of witnesses have opened up the role of Aliza Gunado, who is Azis Syamsuddin's confidant. This award was given to Stepanus Robin Pattuju who had been dismissed from his job as an investigator.
In this case, the KPK suspects that Azis and former General Chairperson of the PP Youth Forces of the Golkar Party (AMPG) Aliza Gunado gave bribes to KPK investigator Stepanus Robin Pattuju (SRP) worth Rp. 3.1 billion from an agreement of Rp. 4 billion.
The money was given to Stepanus so that the former investigators would secure their position in the alleged corruption of the Special Allocation Fund (DAK) in Central Lampung.
