JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) immediately formed a team that was leaving for Jayapura, Papua to check the health of Papua Governor Lukas Enembe. This team will later be filled with doctors from the Executive Board of the Indonesian Doctors Association (PB IDI) and the KPK. "We just had a meeting, a new team had a small meeting. However, the team has already formed," said KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri to reporters in Jakarta, Tuesday, October 18. After being formed, this team will then carry out a number of activities including restoring the condition of Lukas. Firli hopes that this step can make it easier for the KPK to ask for information from the governor. "(The team, ed) ensures and at the same time assists the health recovery of the parties whose statements are needed by the KPK," he said. In addition, the team is expected to prove the anti-corruption commission's steps to fulfill the suspect's rights. "There are at least six incidents of implementing the main tasks of the KPK," said Firli. "One of them is upholding human rights, legal certainty, and upholding justice, proportionality, transparency, accountability," he continued. For information, Papua Governor Lukas Enembe's attorney, Roy Rening, said the IDI team would examine his client in Jayapura. He even claimed that KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri would go there and meet his client. "The chairman of the KPK will be present directly with a team of independent doctors who will go to Jayapura," Roy told reporters at the KPK's Red and White House, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Monday, October 17. Roy stated that he received information that Firli would go to Jayapura from the Director of KPK Enforcement Asep Guntur Rahayu. However, it is not detailed when the team will participate. "So it was confirmed earlier that he would also attend Jayapura is the Chairman of the KPK itself. It was conveyed like that," he said. "I think this is a positive thing so that on the spot I can see the governor's direct health condition," continued Roy. As previously reported, Lukas has been named a suspect by the KPK. However, the case that ensnared him has not been detailed. Lukas will actually be questioned on Monday, September 26 at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta. However, the examination was failed because Lukas admitted he was sick and could not provide information. Furthermore, the KPK will return to make summons that have not been informed for sure. Lukas was asked to cooperate in fulfilling the training of KPK investigators because his statement was needed to make clear the allegations of corruption that occurred.
