The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has confirmed that the departure of KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri and his team to Jayapura to examine Papua Governor Lukas Enembe was not arbitrary. Internal studies have been carried out with various parties.
"Previously, studies and in-depth discussions have been carried out within the KPK, especially investigators and public prosecutors (JPU), all structural prosecutions, leaders, and other related parties," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Saturday, November 5.
Ali ensured that Firli and the team's presence to Jayapura were aimed at investigating the alleged corruption that ensnared Lukas. However, this investigation must see the health condition of the regional head as a suspect.
"For this reason, the examination was also included by a team of KPK and IDI doctors," he said.
Furthermore, the KPK ensures Firli's participation also does not violate the rules. Moreover, there is no clan in the dark space that can raise suspicions.
"This activity is carried out in an open place and can be witnessed directly by various parties and even then published to the public," said Ali.
As previously reported, Firli Bahuri together with a team of KPK doctors and the Executive Board of the Indonesian Doctors Association (PB IDI) and investigators met with Lukas Enembe on Thursday, November 3. An examination related to the alleged corruption carried out by Lukas has also been carried out.
However, the examination was immediately completed because of Lukas' health. At that time, he was sick and his condition had been examined by a team of doctors.
The presence of the anti-corruption commission to Jayapura is in the spotlight. One of them came from a former KPK employee who was a member of the Indonesia Calling (IM) 57+ Institute who assessed that there was special treatment from the anti-corruption commission on Lukas.
"Why is Lukas Enembe not treated the same as the other suspects who were absent and were not willing to come even though they had been summoned many times by the KPK," Praswad told reporters, Friday, November 4.
Praswad assessed that this action was not in accordance with the principles and code of ethics of the KPK, one of which was treating all Indonesian citizens equally before the law. In fact, this treatment can be a bad precedent.
He said, it is not impossible that the way Lukas will be followed by other suspects. They could have reasoned, even asked the head of the anti-corruption commission to meet them to lobby.
