JAKARTA - Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Karyoto responded to Yusri Ihza Mahendra's opinion to stop handling the alleged extortion case against former Agriculture Minister Syahrul Yasin Limpo who had named Firli Bahuri as a suspect.
According to him, the handling of the case will not be stopped. But it was completed completely.
"In principle, I will solve the case," Karyoto told reporters, Tuesday, January 16.
Regarding the same thing, the Director of Special Criminal Investigation at the Metro Jaya Police, Kombes Ade Safri Simanjuntak, was reluctant to respond. This is because Yusril Ihza Mahendra's capacity as a witness made it easier for Firli Bahuri.
"I did not respond because the person concerned was examined as a witness a de charge and it had been conveyed to the suspect FB in the last examination of the suspect. And it was stated in the BAP of the suspect related to the reference witness a de charge submitted by the suspect FB and as a follow-up, investigators have summoned yes, witness a de charge on behalf of Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra," he said.
In addition, Ade also emphasized that he would not respond to any statements that were outside the context of the investigation. It is only emphasized that in handling this case, investigators are working professionally.
"Regarding what comments outside the context of the investigation, we apologize that we did not respond and that it was not the competence concerned to respond to this," said Ade.

Yusril Ihza Mahendra previously argued that the alleged extortion or gratification case against former Agriculture Minister Syahrul Yasin Limpo who named Firli Bahuri as a suspect should be stopped.
Termination of the investigation of the case can be done through pretrial methods and the issuance of a letter of termination of investigation or SP3.
"Actually, it is better if this case is terminated. It can be proven through pretrial, SP3 can also be issued," said Yusril to reporters before giving his statement to investigators at Bareskrim Polri, Monday, January 15.
Yusril also highlighted the evidence in the case. One of them is a photo showing a meeting between Firli Bahuri and Syahrul Yasin Limpo on one of the badminton fields. According to him, the evidence does not explain anything, including the alleged extortion.
The photo is considered only linked by investigators. This is because the photo was taken or made in 2022 before the investigation into the alleged corruption case at the Ministry of Agriculture or the determination of Syahrul Yasin Limpo as a suspect.
"The photo doesn't explain anything, just take a photo. In the photo, it doesn't appear that one person blackmails the other, it doesn't exist," said Yusril.
