JAKARTA - Chairman of the Election Winning Body (Bappilu) of the Democratic Party Andi Arief accused the Acting Spokesman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, of misrepresenting his summons today, Monday, March 28.
Andi will actually be summoned for questioning regarding the bribery case that ensnared the inactive North Penajam Paser Regent (PPU) Abdul Gafur Mas'ud. However, he felt that he did not receive a summons from the KPK.
"Was I summoned today for the case of the North Panajam Regent's Gratification? First, where is my summons," Andi said as quoted from his Twitter account @Andiarief__ on Monday, March 28.
In addition, he admitted that he was surprised why he was suddenly linked to the bribery case. Andi then questioned what the purpose of the summons was.
In fact, the Democrat Party politician actually summoned Ali Fikri back to the DPP of the Democratic Party officially.
"The KPK spokesman said the wrong thing or deliberately treated me like this? I will call the official KPK spokesman to the DPP," he said.
It didn't stop there, Andi also demanded an apology from Ali Fikri for spreading hoaxes and being unprofessional to his detriment.
Then, still quoted from his Twitter, Andi admitted that he had reported to members of Commission III of the DPR RI from the Democratic Party Faction.
He asked his colleague who is a legislator to summon Ali Fikri as Acting Spokesman for the KPK to explain the motive for the announcement, which Andi considered, as untrue news or hoaxes.
"I have reported members of Commission 3 of the Democratic Party of Representatives to summon the spokesman for the KPK and what is the motive for announcing false news indiscriminately," he said.
Regarding this accusation, Ali Fikri has not provided further confirmation. However, the KPK had previously announced the summons.
Ali said Andi Arief would be questioned as a witness regarding the alleged bribery taking by Abdul Gafur Mas'ud.
"Andi Arief is being questioned as a witness for the AGM suspect," said Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, in a written statement, Monday, March 28.
Andi Arief has not yet known the material for the examination that will be investigated. However, the KPK some time ago stated that it was ready to investigate the use of bribes received by Abdul Gafur.
As previously reported, the Corruption Eradication Commission appointed Abdul Gafur with the Plt Secretary of North Penajam Paser Regency, Mulyadi; Head of Department of Public Works and Spatial Planning of North Penajam Paser Regency Edi Hasmoro; Head of the North Penajam Paser District Education, Youth and Sports Office, Jusman; and the General Treasurer of the Balikpapan Democratic Party DPC, Nur Afifah Balqis as a bribe recipient.
Meanwhile, as a suspect for giving bribes, the KPK has named a private party named Achmad Zudi. These six people have been named as suspects in alleged bribery in the procurement of goods and services as well as granting permits in North Penajam Paser Regency.
Their determination was initiated from a hand-catching operation (OTT) which was held on Wednesday, January 12 in two locations, namely Jakarta and North Kalimantan. From the results of the action, the KPK also confiscated Rp1 billion and Rp447 million in Balqis's account.
