JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is investigating the allegation of giving money other than Tanjungbalai Mayor M Syahrial to their former investigator, Stepanus Robin Pattuju.
This was done when the anti-corruption commission examined Stepanus and a lawyer, Maskur Husein, on Tuesday, July 6. Both were investigated as suspects in the bribery case handling the case of the Mayor of Tanjungbalai M Syahrial.
"Investigators are still investigating, among other things, the receipt of a sum of money from other related parties besides the Mayor of Tanjungbalai M Syahrial," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Prevention Ipi Maryati told reporters, Wednesday, July 7.
However, Ipi did not explain further about the source or amount of money received by Stepanus, who acted as the case broker. He said, all the results of the examination will be included in the indictment.
Meanwhile, after being questioned, Stepanus said that no other party was involved in the case against him. "It's just me, Maskur, and the Mayor of Tanjungbalai. No other party is involved," he said.
Previously reported, the KPK named three suspects, namely Stepanus Robin Pattuju, a lawyer named Maskur Husein, and the Mayor of Tanjung Balai M Syahrial.
Stepanus is suspected of asking for Rp 1.5 billion from the Mayor of Tanjungbalai M Syahrial.
The money was given so that the case experienced by M Syahrial related to the bribery investigation investigated by the KPK at the Tanjungbalai City Government, North Sumatra was stopped.
