JAKARTA - The PDI-P (PDIP) legal team objected to the Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) stating that investigators Rossa Purbo Bekti had worked according to standard operating procedures (SOP). He said, what happened during a search at Donny Tri Istiqomah's house was the opposite. This was conveyed by a legal team led by Johannes L. Tobing when he visited the ACLC KPK Building, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Tuesday, July 30. This presence also conveyed a response letter to the decision of the KPK Supervisory Board. “Faktanya tidak so. Ada satu hal bahwa kami tentu mengawal KPK ini dalam SOP yang diatur secara KUHAP bahwa yang namanya confiscation dan penggeledahan itu harus izin ketua pengadilan setempat,” kata Johannes kepada wartawan di lokasi. "Well, the fact is that Rossa's brother searched our client on July 3 which turns out to be from this letter they just got a court permit on July 10,”" he continued. This condition made the party's legal team bearing the bull symbol protest the decision of the KPK Supervisory Board. “ So it means that the unprofessional action was carried out by Rossa's brother,” said Johannes. In addition, Johannes also said that the arrival of investigators to Donny Tri Istiqomah's house had traumatized his family. Moreover, his claim is that there are parties who carry long-barreled weapons.

" “ Yes, of course they are scared. Having a small child is two years old, there are still six months. Well, so we continue to convey these objections,” he said. Our last point is that the KPK Council has never confirmed calling us. There was never a trial. We were never called as reporters, "” concluded Johannes.
