JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) confirmed that it had received a report related to allegations of corruption by the Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the DPR RI from the NasDem Fraction, Ahmad Sahroni.

Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said his party would follow up on the report by verifying it. The report on Sahroni was submitted by Adam Deni's attorney, Herwanto on Tuesday, April 5.

"It is true, the KPK has received the report. Next, it will be verified and examined to find out in more detail whether the complaint submitted is a corruption crime and is within the authority of the KPK to follow up," said Ali in a written statement, Thursday, April 7.

If the results of the verification of the alleged corruption were the authority of the anti-corruption commission, Ali said, his party would certainly follow up according to the applicable regulations. So, people are asked to be patient.

"KPK appreciates various parties who have always been persistent in supporting efforts to eradicate corruption," he said.

As previously reported, Adam Deni's legal counsel for social media activists, Herwanto, submitted information on alleged rioting known to his client to the KPK. He said that the submission of this information was a form of defense that had actually been presented by Adam Deni at the previous trial.

"We actually don't want to go head to head with our opponent, no. But, like it or not, we have to convey information about this alleged corruption crime because it is related to the defense of our client," said Herwanto.

Furthermore, Herwanto was reluctant to elaborate on any information on alleged corruption that was submitted to the KPK. Because, Adam should have done the delivery himself.

However, the information has not yet been conveyed, it turns out that his client had already been arrested by the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. So, according to Adam Deni's message, information on allegations of corruption was finally conveyed by Herwanto.

"Yesterday he said that my struggle would be continued by his attorney. So, I asked for a power of attorney to our client to convey information to the KPK," he said.

"If friends (media, ed) want to know in detail what documents we have brought and we will give to the KPK tomorrow, the defendant will immediately explain in detail. They have an obligation to explain in detail what documents were given to the KPK," added Herwanto.

Adam Deni is a defendant in the alleged violation of the Information and Electronic Transactions (ITE) Law. Adam and the other defendant, Ni Made Dwita Anggari, were charged with intentionally uploading a personal document without the permission of the Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the DPR RI, Ahmad Sahroni.
