Azis Syamsuddin played a role in the collusion at the beginning of the case. Azis 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.
Stepanus Robin Pattuju and Maskur Husain are suspected of having received a bribe from M. Syahrial amounting to Rp 1.3 billion from the Rp 1.5 billion deal.
