The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed Yulce Wenda and Astract Bona Timoramo Enembe reluctant to testify for the inactive Papua Governor Lukas Enembe. They did not want to talk about the alleged bribery and gratuities that ensnared Lukas on Wednesday, January 18.

"The investigative team also asked the willingness of the two witnesses to be examined as witnesses in the case file of the suspect LE and both stated that they refused," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Thursday, January 19.

Even so, investigators managed to ask for information from the two regarding the meeting between Lukas and the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijantono Lakka. Ali said, it is suspected that there was a project discussion at the meeting.

"The witness' knowledge was explored, among others, related to the meeting between the suspect LE and the suspect RL who discussed infrastructure development projects in Papua," he said.

Actually, the KPK will also examine another witness, namely a private company named Yonater Karomba. However, he was not present and will be recalled.

Yonater was asked to cooperate because his statement was needed to investigate the alleged bribery and gratuities that ensnared Lukas. "The witness was not present and the reschedule will be submitted to the person concerned soon," said Ali.

As previously reported, Lukas was detained after he was named a suspect in the alleged bribery and gratification of project procurement in the Papua Provincial Government. During his detention, he appeared to be wearing a wheelchair.

In this case, Lukas Enembe is suspected of receiving money from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijantono Lakka, so that the company gets a project. It is suspected that this collusion was also carried out with officials in the Papua Provincial Government.
