Lukas Enembe's attorney, Antonius Eko Nugroho, explained the condition of the defendant in the bribery and gratification case of infrastructure projects shortly before he breathed his last.

Before he died, Lukas had tried to move to get out of the hospitalization bed at the RSPAD. Lukas was assisted by his younger brother, Pianus Enembe, to wake up from lying down.

"Before he died, Mr. Lukas asked to stand up, then Mr. Pianus helped Mr. Lukas to stand up, holding Mr. Lukas' waist, he soon stood up, Mr. Lukas breathed his last," said Antonius.

Based on the family's explanation, Lukas wanted to get out of bed because he wanted to show a attitude that he was still strong in dealing with his case.
