JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has scheduled a summons to the Supreme Court Judge Gazalba Saleh. He was asked to cooperate in fulfilling the second summons as a suspect.

"It has been scheduled, just attend or not," said KPK Deputy for Enforcement and Execution Karyoto which was broadcast on the Indonesian KPK YouTube, Tuesday, December 6.

It was not specified when the exact time for the summons of Gazalba. However, he will be forcibly picked up if he is not cooperative in fulfilling the investigator's summons.

"The reason (not present, red) is still appropriate and natural, we can see. Otherwise, yes, we can make other forced attempts (forced pick-ups, ed)," he said.

Previously, the KPK had named 13 people as suspects for alleged bribery in case management at the Supreme Court. They are Supreme Court Justice Gazalba Saleh, Judicial Judge Prasetio Nugroho and Gazalba staff, Redhy Novarisza.

Gazalba was named a suspect because it was suspected of discriminating the decision on Budiman Gandi Suparman's cassation related to disputes within the Intidana Savings and Loans Cooperative.

As a result of his actions, Budiman, who is a board member, was sentenced to five years in prison. This decision was based on an agreement to give money amounting to Rp. 2.2 billion or 202,000 Singapore dollars.

Meanwhile, the other 10 people named as suspects are the inactive Supreme Court Judge Sudrajad Dimyati, Judicial Judge or substitute clerk, Elly Tri Pangestu (ETP); two state civil servants (ASN) at the MA, Desy Yustria (DY) and Muhajir Habibie (MH); and two ASN in the MA, Nurmanto Akmal (NA), and Albasri (AB).

Next, lawyers Yosep Parera (YP) and Eko Suparno (ES) as well as debtors of the Intidana Savings and Loans Cooperative, Heryanto Tanaka (HT), and Debtor of the Savings and Loans Cooperative Ivan Dwi Kusuma Sujanto (IDKS).
