"Junaedi, the Head of the Bekasi City Spatial Planning Service is being examined as a witness," said Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, to reporters, Friday, January 28.

Besides Junaedi, the KPK also summoned the Head of Bekasi City BPKAD Nadih Arifin as a witness.

Ali has not detailed the summons of the two. However, the KPK is currently focusing on investigating the alleged intervention by Pepen in project procurement to cutting allowances for state civil servants (ASN) in Bekasi City.
