JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has ensured that the detention of Judge Yustitial Edy Wibowo is in accordance with the rules. They have pocketed the evidence before sending it to a detention center (rutan).

"Why is it only today, brother EW (Edy Wibowo) is being detained because today we got enough evidence because of the basis of Law Number 8 of 81," said KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri in a KPK RI YouTube broadcast, Tuesday, December 20.

Firli said investigators had just found evidence that Edy had accepted bribes, so he was detained. In fact, the Judicial Judge was previously caught in a hand operation (OTT) at the Supreme Court (MA) related to case management.

Later, the KPK will summon witnesses to make clear the alleged bribery received by Edy. Firli confirmed that this case would be thoroughly investigated.

"We have to look for witness statements and evidence so that with that evidence we will be able to reveal the case to be clear and we find the suspect," he said.

As previously reported, Supreme Court Judicial Judge Edy Wibowo has been named a suspect in receiving bribes. He is suspected of receiving Rp3.7 billion in cash.

The money was given to decide so that the hospital would not be declared bankrupt. The award was made through civil servants at the Supreme Court, Muhajir Habibie and Albasari and carried out in stages.

Muhajir and Albasari had previously been named suspects in the same case. They were named as suspects along with 10 other people, including the inactive Supreme Court Judge Sudrajad Dimyati.

As a result of his actions, Edy together with Muhajir Habibie and Albasari were suspected of violating Article 12 letter c or Article 12 letter a and b in conjunction with Article 11 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) to 1 of the Criminal Code.
