In this case, the KPK also proposed prevention abroad against two other people. However, it was not stated who the two people were.
As previously reported, the KPK appointed its investigator, Stepanus Robin Pattuju, a lawyer named Maskur Husain, and the Mayor of Tanjungbalai M. Syahrial as suspects in the alleged bribery case in the handling of the case of sale and purchase of positions at the Tanjungbalai City Government.
Stepanus Robin Pattuju and Maskur Husain are suspected of having received a bribe from M. Syahrial amounting to IDR 1.3 billion from the IDR 1.5 billion deal. The bribe was given so that Stepanus would help stop the investigation into the alleged sale and purchase of positions in Tanjungbalai that the KPK is currently investigating.
Apart from the bribe from Syahrial, Maskur Husain is also suspected of receiving IDR 200 million from another party. Meanwhile, Stepanus from October 2020 to April 2021 is also suspected of receiving money from other parties through bank transfer in the name of Riefka Amalia, amounting to IDR 438 million.
The initial collision in this case began when Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian Parliament Azis Syamsuddin introduced Stepanus and M Syahrial at his official residence. This Golkar Party politician is thought to know Stepanus from his aide who is both from the Bhayangkara Corps.
