The KPK Calls Supreme Court Justice Gazalba Saleh, Asked Not To Play

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) summoned the Supreme Court Justice (MA) Gazalba Saleh today, Monday, November 28. He was asked to cooperate in fulfilling the investigator's summons.

"It's true, today the investigative team has scheduled the summons of the party named as a suspect in the alleged corruption case at the Supreme Court," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Monday, November 28.

Ali ensured that the summons had been delivered properly. Thus, there is no more reason to be absent from the investigator's summons.

"The letter has been sent. We hope that the parties are cooperative in attending to the summons," he said.

Gazalba Saleh and a staff member within the Supreme Court are reportedly named as suspects in this case. The Supreme Court judge also filed a pretrial against his status on Friday, November 25.

Judging from the Case Tracking Information System (SIPP) of the South Jakarta District Court, this lawsuit is registered with case number 110 / Pid.Pra / 2022 / PN JKT.SEL. There, Gazalba stated that the pretrial panel of judges declared his determination as a suspect was declared invalid and not based on law.

Gazalba also requested that his rights be restored. The panel of judges is expected to grant the lawsuit.

As for the bribery case handling cases at the Supreme Court, the KPK first named 10 suspects. They are the inactive Supreme Court Judge Sudrajad Dimyati, Judicial Judge or substitute clerk, Elly Tri Pangestu (ETP); two state civil servants (ASN) at the Supreme Court, Desy Yustria (DY) and Muhajir Habibie (MH); and two ASN in the Supreme Court, Nurmanto Akmal (NA), and Albasri (AB).

Next, lawyers Yosep Parera (YP) and Eko Suparno (ES) as well as debtors of the Intidana Savings and Loans Cooperative, Heryanto Tanaka (HT), and Debtor of the Savings and Loans Cooperative Ivan Dwi Kusuma Sujanto (IDKS).
