1 Witness Examined By KPK In The Case Of Bribery And Gratification Of Lukas Enembe

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is examining a witness named Mustakim regarding the alleged bribery and gratification that ensnared the inactive Papua Governor Lukas Enembe. He will be questioned today, Tuesday, March 28.

"The examination was carried out at the KPK Office," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Tuesday, March 28.

Ali did not specify the material for the examination. However, this is not the first summons for Mustakim as a witness in the case that ensnared Lukas.

He was previously questioned on Wednesday, November 23, 2022. At that time, Mustakim and other witnesses were asked about the purchase of assets by Lukas Enembe.

Lukas Enembe has been named a suspect in bribery and gratification. He is currently being held at the KPK detention center.

The KPK revealed that the receipt of bribes allegedly came from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijatono Lakka. Meanwhile, gratification is allegedly given by other private parties in order to get projects in Papua.

In an effort to investigate the case that ensnared Lukas, about 90 witnesses were examined. They consist of various elements including digital forensics, forensic accounting experts, and health experts.

It did not stop there, the KPK had also confiscated around Rp50.7 billion in cash; gold bullion, a ring of precious stones, and four cars. This confiscation was carried out to complete evidence of fraudulent practices carried out by the regional head.

Then, investigators frozen the account in the name of Lukas and related parties, which contained money amounting to Rp81.8 billion and 31,559 Singapore dollars.
