Polda Metro Jaya said that the handover of Rp1.3 billion was the basis for investigating cases of alleged extortion and receiving gratuities with the suspect, the former chairman of the KPK, Firli Bahuri.
This is because the handover of the money was included in a public complaint made by former Minister of Agriculture (Mentan) Syahrul Yasin Limpo or SYL
"That's right. The point is that the investigation material carried out by KPK investigators where Syahrul Yasin Limpo as a defendant is currently intersecting with the facts of the incident with the alleged corruption crime that we are currently doing," said Director of Special Criminal Investigation at Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Safri Simanjuntak to reporters, Wednesday, June 26.
Thus, the testimony about the delivery of the money is not new. In fact, it has been recorded in the investigation report or BAP.
Including the handover of Rp500 million in cash that occurred at one of the Gor Badminton in the Central Jakarta area.
"What was conveyed by the defendant Syahrul Yasin Limpo and other defendants and other witnesses were already included in our BAP," said Ade.
However, Ade was reluctant to speak much when asked further about the development of the handling of the Firli Bahuri case. It was only conveyed that investigators were trying to complete the case file in accordance with the research prosecutor's instructions.
"What is clear is that the investigation is still ongoing to complete all the results of the P19 instructions from the public prosecutor at the DKI Jakarta Prosecutor's Office," said Ade.
