Syamsuddin confirmed that all parties who knew about the alleged violation had been summoned. "It seems that it has been completed (the request for clarification, ed)," he said.

From the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, continued Syamsuddin, the Acting Director General of Mineral and Coal, Idris Froyoto Sohote, had been summoned. Likewise with the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Arifin Tasrif.

Furthermore, Syamsuddin said the alleged violation related to the document leak had been completed in the clarification process. "We just have to discuss the results. Hopefully it will be finished this week," he said.

Previously reported, Firli was suspected of being involved in leaking documents related to the investigation into corruption cases at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. This allegation was strengthened by the report of Brigadier General Endar Priantoro to the Supervisory Board.

In addition, Endar again reported Firli Bahuri on two different allegations. First, Firli and the Secretary General of the KPK Cahya H. Harefa to the KPK Supervisory Board for allegedly committing violations when dismissing him as Director of Investigation.

Then, Endar again reported allegations of coercion in making documents related to corruption cases. In fact, at that time the case or exposure had not been carried out.
