"We convey that the PSM prosecutors are suspected of corruption in Article 5 paragraph (2) of the Corruption Act and do not rule out the possibility that they will be chased by following the money, where the money is running," said Hari.

Meanwhile, Djoko Tjandra is suspected of committing a crime as referred to in Article 5 paragraph 1 letter a, or both Article 5 paragraph 1 letter b, or the third Article 13 of the Law on the eradication of corruption.
