JAKARTA - Firli Bahuri's attorney, Ian Iskandar, denied the statement by DPR Commission III member Benny K Harman who said his client had disappeared.

According to him, the former chairman of the KPK for the 2019-2023 period was at his residence in the Bekasi area, West Java.

"That's not true, it's at his (Firli) house. I play at his house every afternoon in Bekasi," said Ian to VOI, Wednesday, July 3.

In fact, he said, Firli Bahuri's activities did not change much after he no longer served as Chairman of the KPK. However, it is no longer busy.

Firli's days are only spent exercising. Then, undergo diversity and family activities.

"Sports twice a week, playing badminton. Then recitation with orphans every Friday night," said Ian.

Benny K Harman had questioned the fate of the previous KPK chairman, Firli Bahuri, who according to him just disappeared.

Benny raised this question when he highlighted the problems that have been in the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) recently.

Benny also asked the KPK ranks, one of which was the chairman of the KPK, while Nawawi Pomolango, to explain this.

"Please explain what is wrong with the Chairman of the KPK? Explain that. Explain to the public, not to us, to the public so that the public knows. Don't let it go, what's wrong? The public doesn't know what's going on in this KPK. The chairman of the KPK just disappeared, the period just disappeared," asked Benny in a working meeting of the KPK with Commission III of the DPR, Monday, July 1.

The Democrat politician also mentioned the KPK leadership who reported members of the supervisory board (Dewas). Then there was the KPK leadership who arbitrarily resigned after being declared to have violated the code of ethics.

Benny also questioned the power of the KPK, which he said was now fragile. Because it does not process its commissioners who violate ethics and corruption.

"Second, there are members of the KPK leadership, yes, reporting to members of the Council, yes. The KPK leadership is here, what is it? Is the KPK so fragile? It used to be there, the KPK leadership who was declared to have violated the code of ethics. Then, it's okay for him to resign, you know that," said Benny.
