JAKARTA - Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Firli Bahuri confirmed that his party would continue to hunt down the fugitives, including PDIP candidate Harun Masiku. They certainly will not be able to sleep well.

"There are several people that the KPK is looking for. I'm not mentioning one by one but not just one person, there are at least six people we are still looking for," Firli told reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Wednesday, 18 May.

Firli said Harun and the other fugitives who were not further specified would continue to be searched for at any time. The KPK is currently just waiting for time.

"I'm sure to this day he can't sleep well. Because the KPK will look for him at any time. It's only a matter of time before he will be caught," said the former Deputy for Enforcement of the KPK.

The KPK has named Harun Masiku as a suspect in giving bribes to KPU commissioner Wahyu Setiawan since January 2020. This bribery was carried out so that he could easily sit as a member of the DPR through interim shifts or PAW.

Harun's escape began when the KPK carried out an arrest operation regarding this case on January 8, 2020. In the silent operation, the KPK named four suspects, namely Harun Masiku, Wahyu Setiawan, former Bawaslu Member Agustiani Tio Fridelina, and Saeful Bahri.

It's just that Aaron, who was not caught by OTT, is unknown. He reportedly fled to Singapore and is said to have returned to Indonesia.

Apart from Harun, there are actually three other fugitives who have not been caught. They are Surya Darmadi who has been on the run since 2019; Izil Azhar has been fugitive since 2018; and Kirana Kotama who has been fugitive since 2017.
