JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has examined lawyer Maskur Husain as a suspect and witness in the bribery case handling the sale and purchase of positions at the Tanjungbalai City Government. The examination was to explore the form of cooperation with another suspect, AKP Stepanus Robin Pattuju.
"It was confirmed, among other things, related to the collaboration with the SRP suspect for the management of the alleged handling of the case of suspect M Syahrial (MS) at the KPK," said Acting KPK Spokesperson Ali Fikri in his statement, Saturday, June 19.

For information, in this case, the KPK has named Stepanus Robin Pattuju who is the investigator, a lawyer named Maskur Husain and the Mayor of Tanjungbalai M. Syahrial as suspects in the alleged bribery case handling the sale and purchase of positions at the Tanjungbalai City Government.
Stepanus Robin Pattuju and Maskur Husain are suspected of having received bribes from M. Syahrial in the amount of Rp. 1.3 billion from an agreement of Rp. 1.5 billion.
