JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) forcibly picked up the Mimika Regent Eltinus Omaleng. This step was taken because he is a suspect in the alleged corruption case in the construction of the Kingmi Mile 32 Church. "It's true (the forced pick-up, ed)," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Wednesday, September 7. No further details about the forced pick-up. However, the process is still ongoing. Previously, Eltinus had submitted a pretrial to the South Jakarta District Court even though his legal status had not been announced by the KPK. However, the application was rejected by the panel of judges. The alleged corruption in the Kingmi Mile Church 32 phase one fiscal year (TA) 2015 construction project in Mimika Regency, Papua has entered the investigation stage. The project is estimated to cost around Rp160 billion. Apart from Eltinus, there is another suspect in that case. However, the KPK has not detailed further. Pengumuman pihak terkait sekaligus status hukum mereka bersama konstruksi kasus akan disampaikan bersama dengan upaya paksa penahanan. Biasanya akan dilakukan dalam konferensi pers.
