JAKARTA - The trial of the pretrial filed by the former Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights, Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej alias Eddy Hiariej, has been postponed until next week. The reason is that the Legal Bureau team of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) could not attend, today.

"The trial was postponed Monday (18 December 2023)," said the sole judge of the South Jakarta District Court, Estiono, during the trial, Monday, December 11.

Originally the trial for Eddy Hiariej's pretrial lawsuit was scheduled at 10.00 WIB.

Eddy filed the lawsuit because he did not accept that he was named a suspect by the KPK in the case of alleged bribery and gratification.

Eddy Hiariej filed a lawsuit with his personal assistant, Yogi Arie Rukmana and lawyer, Yosi Andika Mulyadi. The lawsuit is registered with registration number 134/Pid.Pra/2023/PN JKT.SEL.

Previously, the KPK suspected that Eddy Hiariej had accepted bribes to deal with company disputes to stop handling cases at the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. The KPK will continue to investigate the allegations.

The KPK admitted that it had obtained sufficient preliminary evidence to ensnare Eddy Hiariej, namely bribes worth Rp. 8 billion. The KPK confirmed that the alleged receipt would be investigated further.

In this case, the KPK named four people as suspects, namely Eddy Hiariej, his personal assistant Yogi Arie Rukmana (YAR), lawyer Yosi Andika Mulyadi (YAM), and former President Director of PT Citra Lampia Mandiri (CLM), Helmut Hermawan (HH) as suspects. For now, the KPK has just arrested Helmut.
