JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) stated that the forced pick-up of Papuan Governor Lukas Enembe would be carried out if he was absent again on the second summons. However, they are not in a hurry because they prioritize the safety of the citizens.
"Law enforcement must also pay attention to the safety of the people," said KPK Deputy Chairman Alexander Marwata to reporters, Monday, October 17.
Alexander ensured that every step to investigate the alleged corruption carried out by Lukas would be carefully calculated. The conditions in Papua will be of concern to the KPK.
"We will continue to see what the conditions are like there. Is it conducive, right," he said.
The public, including the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) has repeatedly conveyed the urge to forcibly pick up Lukas. MAKI Coordinator Boyamin Saiman asked the KPK to be firm if the regional head was absent again on the second summons.
"The law applies to everyone. If you are called twice, you don't show up, you are forced to pick up," Boyamin Saiman, Coordinator of the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI), told reporters on Friday, October 14.

Boyamin believes that to stop Lukas's attitude, firm action must be taken by KPK. Moreover, many Papuans actually support the investigation into the alleged corruption that ensnared Lukas.
After all, he continued, everyone is equal in the eyes of the law. Anyone who is not present at the second summons as a suspect must be forcibly picked up.
As previously reported, the anti-corruption commission named Lukas Enembe as a suspect. However, the case against him has not been detailed.
Lukas will actually be questioned on Monday, September 26 at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta. However, this examination was not carried out because Lukas claimed to be sick and could not provide information.
Furthermore, the KPK will again make calls that have not been informed for sure. Lukas was asked to cooperate in responding to the investigator's summons because his statement was needed to clarify the allegations of corruption.
