JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) examined a construction worker, Edi Haryono, on Wednesday, February 15. He was questioned by investigators regarding assets allegedly purchased by former Ambon Mayor Richard Louhenapessy from bribes.

"The witness was present and his knowledge was investigated, among others, related to the alleged ownership of RL suspect's assets in the form of buildings in the Cibubur area, East Jakarta," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Thursday, February 16.

Actually, the KPK will also examine two other witnesses, namely Heri Rahmanto who is a Branch Manager of PT Astra Sedaya Finance Fatmawati branch, Jakarta and Vehicle Logistic Division of PT Toyota Astra Motor, Martamba Sitorus. It's just that, Ali said, both of them were not present.

"Rescheduling will immediately be conveyed to the witnesses in question," he said.

As previously reported, Richard was charged by the KPK with money laundering. This is the second case that ensnared him.

Meanwhile, in the bribery case, he has been sentenced to five years in prison in the bribery case for licensing Alfamidi outlets. This verdict was read out at the Corruption Court at the Ambon District Court (PN) on February 9.

Richard was charged a fine of Rp. 500 million. The sentence must be repaid within a month after the decision has permanent legal force, or replaced with an additional one year in prison.

Not only that, the judge also ordered Richard to pay a replacement money of Rp. 8 billion. This decision was handed down because he was found guilty of accepting bribes for granting permission for Alfamidi outlets.
