After the pretrial lawsuit was rejected by the court, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigators scheduled an examination of the PDI-P Secretary-General, Hasto Kristiyanto, as a suspect in the alleged corruption case on Monday, February 17.

"It's true, HK's brother was summoned today in his capacity as a suspect," said KPK spokesman, Tessa Mahardhika, in her statement.

The examination of Hasto is planned to be carried out at the KPK's Red and White Building, South Jakarta. So far, there has been no information from the KPK regarding the material to be investigated in the examination.

Previously, the sole judge of the South Jakarta District Court, Djuyamto, on Thursday, February 13, stated that he could not accept a pretrial lawsuit regarding the status of suspect Hasto Kristiyanto.

The judge granted the exception of the respondent, stated that the applicant's pretrial application was unacceptable, and charged the court fees to the applicant with zero.

"Then, stating that the applicant's pretrial application was vague or unclear," said Djuyamto.
