JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the inactive Papua Governor Lukas Enembe was in good health in a detention center (rutan). He is even said to be able to play ping pong with other prisoners.

"The latest information is that you can exercise, ping pong," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Thursday, February 16.

"So yes (Luke condition, red), healthy," he continued.

In addition, the anti-corruption commission also provides sweet potatoes for Lukas to enjoy in detention.

"We have prepared food, including sweet potatoes," said Ali.

Previously reported, Lukas became a suspect in alleged bribery and gratification for allegedly receiving money from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijantono Lakka. The gift was made so that the private company got a project in Papua.

The KPK said that there was a 14 percent agreement on the value of the contract and payments must be free of tax deductions.

After agreeing, Rijantono's company got three projects. The first is the improvement of Jalan Entrop-Hamadi with a project value of IDR 14.8 billion.

Rehabilitation of facilities and infrastructure supporting PAUD Integration with a project value of IDR 13.3 billion. Finally, the venue environmental planning project developed outdoor AURI with a project value of IDR 12.9 billion.

After the project was won, Rijantono handed over Rp1 billion to Lukas. In addition, Lukas is also suspected of receiving gratuities of up to tens of billions that have just been investigated by the KPK.

Apart from Lukas, the KPK suspects that there are officials who play in accepting bribes and gratuities. However, investigators are still investigating.
