JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has examined a lawyer named Simon Petrus and a student, Double, in the investigation into the alleged bribery case for the determination of members of the Indonesian House of Representatives for the 2019-2024 period with the suspect Harun Masiku.

Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said there were two things that were investigated by witnesses. One of them is about the whereabouts of Harun Masiku, who is now a fugitive.

"Both of them were present and confirmed, among others, related to the whereabouts of the suspect HM (Harun Masiku)," Ali told reporters, Friday, May 31.

Not only that, but the two witnesses also explored their statements regarding the possibility of parties protecting Harun Masiku.

It is known, the whereabouts of Harun Masiku is not yet known. His name has been on the wanted list or DPO since January 29, 2020.

"It is also about the alleged existence of certain parties protecting the suspect, thus hampering the search process from the investigative team," said Ali.

Harun is a suspect in giving bribes to former KPU commissioner Wahyu Setiawan. This gift was given so that he could sit as a member of the DPR through the interim replacement (PAW).

In an effort to hunt down his whereabouts, the KPK coordinated with the National Central Bureau (NCB) of Interpol Indonesia to issue a red notice on behalf of Harun Masiku.

Until finally, Harun Masiku officially became an Interpol fugitive since Friday, July 30, 2023.
