JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will release Supreme Court Justice Gazalba Saleh who was found not guilty in the alleged money laundering case. This step was taken in accordance with the order of the Jakarta Corruption Court Judge who was knocked today.

"Technically, the defendant will be temporarily expelled from detention according to the order of the panel of judges," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters in a written statement, Monday, May 27.

Ali ensured that his institution appreciated the decision read out by the panel of judges. However, they need a copy from the court to conduct an analysis.

"As a judicial product, of course we respect the interim decision that has been read out by the panel of judges. We are waiting for a copy of the decision and we will immediately study it for further analysis," he said.

As previously reported, the Jakarta Corruption Court ordered the KPK to release Supreme Court Justice Gazalba Saleh in a trial held today, Monday, May 27. This order came after the exception submitted was granted.

"To try, one, grant a note of objection from the legal advisory team of the defendant Gazalba Saleh," said Panel of Judges Fahzal Hendri.

This exception was granted because the judge assessed that the prosecutor at the KPK had not received an appointment from the Attorney General. Thus, the indictment submitted cannot be accepted.

Gazalba is also known to have been released from the entanglement of accepting bribery in case management at the Supreme Court (MA) worth 110 thousand Singapore dollars. At that time, the indictment against him was not proven by the Bandung Corruption Court.
