The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Was Reminded Not To Play Politics Regarding The Determination Of Suspect Hasto Kristiyanto
JAKARTA - Coordinator of the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) Boyamin Saiman demanded the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to immediately clarify the status of the suspect of the PDI-P Secretary General (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto for the Harun Masiku case.
On the one hand, Boyamin emphasized that the KPK should not play politics in handling cases that dragged Hasto.
"What must be understood, the KPK should not play too much politics. But if this is indeed part of the law, immediately delegate it to the court so that it is not pros and cons prolonged and I think this is part of my own legal learning," Boyamin told reporters, Tuesday, December 24.
MAKI, he continued, supports the KPK in eradicating corruption in enforcing the law thoroughly and immediately brought to court. This is necessary so that the KPK can prove the determination of Hasto as a suspect in a purely legal case
"Because this case cannot be separated from politics where Hasto Kristiyanto is the Secretary General of PDIP who is currently in opposition and that has been echoed by Pak Hasto and PDIP friends and I don't blame that," said Boyamin.
