He will be worked on as a witness by investigators in the bribery case for the procurement of railroads at the Directorate General of Railways (DJKA).

"Located at the KPK's Red and White Building, the investigative team has scheduled summons and examination of witnesses," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters in a written statement, Thursday, January 18.

The material for the investigation has not been detailed on Novie. However, Ali said this summons was related to two new suspects from elements of the state civil apparatus (ASN).
