The Secretary General of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Indra Iskandar, chose to take a thousand steps after being worked on by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigators as witnesses today, Thursday, March 14. There was no explanation whatsoever from his mouth after undergoing an examination as a witness to allegations of corruption in the procurement of goods at the official residence of the council members. Monitoring at the location, Indra left the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta at around 14.30 WIB. He was seen wearing a white long-sleeved shirt rolled around his arm. There was no statement made by Indra at that time. He just waved and even had time to raise his hand while holding his lips in front of the reporter's camera who was waiting for him. Together with an aide, Indra then rushed to the exit of the building area. When asked again about his examination, he only answered briefly. "“Ask the investigator," asked the investigator, "”" he said briefly. Furthermore, Indra immediately got into a brown minibus which was waiting for him at the exit area. He said nothing else. Previously reported, the KPK revealed allegations of corruption at the Secretariat General of the DPR RI related to the procurement of furniture or furniture at the official residence of lawmakers.
