JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (Dewas KPK) has scheduled the examination of 13 witnesses in the code trial of the inactive KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri.

"We are still continuing the trial tomorrow (December 21)," said Chairman of the KPK Council Tumpak Hatorangan Panggabean at the ACLC KPK building, Kuningan, South Jakarta, Wednesday, December 20.

The material for the trial is said to be the same as what was done today, namely the examination of witnesses.

"The 13 people examined tomorrow are certainly different (from today's witnesses), a total of 27 witnesses," said Tumpak.

The KPK Council is targeting to complete the Firli Bahuri code of ethics trial before the new year.

Tumpak also warned Firli, if he is not present again, he will suffer losses because he did not use the right to defend himself.

Without Firli's presence, Firli did not attend for unclear reasons, in accordance with our provisions, if he had not attended twice without a valid presence, then the trial would still be continued, meaning he did not use his right to defend himself.

Firli has twice failed to fulfill the summons of the KPK Council to undergo a code of ethics.

Firli Bahuri is suspected of violating the code of ethics, namely a violation of a meeting with former Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo and then dishonestly filling out the State Administrators Wealth Report (LHKPN) and renting a house in the elite area of Jalan Kertanegara Number 46, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta.
