JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) opens the opportunity to summon DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan in a case of alleged corruption in the purchase of land for the Rp 0 DP house in Munjul, Pondok Ranggon, East Jakarta.
Responding to this, Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria thought Anies and himself would not be summoned by the KPK for questioning.
"I think it's not that far. If for example all SOE affairs then the BUMN Minister is called, then BUMD affairs then the governor and vice governor are called, yes, we all can't work," said Riza at DKI City Hall, Central Jakarta, Monday, March 15.
According to Riza, if Anies and himself as the leader of DKI were summoned by the KPK and then focused on the alleged corruption problem, the work program of the DKI Provincial Government could stall. However, Deputy Governor Riza returned the summoning authority to the KPK.
"I think the Corruption Eradication Commission is very professional, very understanding, knows who to ask, who should be clarified, who should be summoned. We will hand over the mechanism like what has been in the KPK, we respect it," he explained.
Previously, Acting KPK spokesperson for the field of prosecution, Ali Fikri, said that the summoning of Anies was possible, the former Minister of Education and Culture was the party who knew about the alleged corruption crime.
"I think whoever the witnesses saw, who felt, then knew about this incident would of course (be summoned, ed) later," said Ali.
Moreover, currently there have been a number of witnesses being examined in connection with this case. So, if there is further development, Ali said, investigators will call other witnesses to strengthen the articles suspected in this case, namely Article 2 and Article 3 of the Corruption Law.
"From there it will be further developed who the witnesses will be summoned to strengthen the evidence of the suspected articles," he said.
