"If it is complete, if it is still lacking, the reporter will ask the reporter to complete the supporting documents," said Tessa to VOI, Monday, September 9, 2024.

Tessa said the investigation into complaints related to the use of private jets by Kaesang and Bobby depended on how strong the report was. The review process is currently being worked on.

"It cannot be determined (the time period, ed). Depending on the review process and the completeness of the documents that can be obtained," said the spokesman with the investigator's background.

Previously reported, the KPK had received two complaints about the use of private jets by the Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) who is also the son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), Kaesang Pangarep. Those who complained were the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) and lecturers at the Jakarta State University (UNJ) Ubaidillah Badrun.
