The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said that the search for information related to fugitive Harun Masiku from the cellphone belonging to the PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto would be carried out optimally. Investigators are believed to be able to find the clues needed to resolve this case.

This was conveyed by the KPK Spokesperson Team Budi Prasetyo when asked about Hasto's cellphone which was only confiscated on Monday, June 10. In fact, Harun Masiku, who is the briber of former KPU commissioner Wahyu Setiawan, has been on the run since 2020 or four years ago.

"The investigative team will certainly optimize various ways to get the information and information needed," Budi told reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, June 11.

Budi ensured that the investigators did not carry out the confiscation of the cellphone arbitrarily. He said it was believed that there was information needed to find Harun.

"So that the examination in this case or in the context of the search for one of the DPOs in this case can also produce results," he said.

As previously reported, PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto was examined as a witness regarding the latest information about Harun Masiku who was still at large on Monday, June 10. After that, he complained because the cellphone in his assistant was confiscated.

This confiscation made him argue with investigators. Then, Hasto asked for the examination to be postponed.

The confiscation of cellphones from Hasto's staff, Kusnadi, was reported to the KPK Supervisory Board. They also plan to file a pretrial lawsuit related to the confiscation.

For information, Hasto became the fourth witness summoned by the KPK after new information. Harun became a fugitive when he was named a suspect in giving bribes to former KPU Commissioner Wahyu Setiawan to serve as a member of the DPR through interim shifts (PAW).
