JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkumham) Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej visited the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta today, Monday, March 20. He will clarify the report on himself submitted by the Chairman of the Indonesia Police Watch (IPW) Sugeng Teguh Santoso.
"I want to clarify at the KPK, wait a minute, thank you," said the Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights to reporters upon arrival at the KPK Office.
Edward immediately entered the building without further statements. He seemed accompanied by a number of parties.
Previously, Sugeng reported the Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights to the KPK on suspicion of gratification worth Rp. 7 billion. This acceptance is allegedly related to the consultation and assistance for the ratification of a company's legal entity.
After this report was made, Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights assistant Yogi Ari Rukmana immediately reported Sugeng Teguh Santoso on suspicion of defamation to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police, Tuesday night, March 14.
The report was submitted because Sugeng called it an intermediary for receiving money in his alleged complaint to the KPK. Furthermore, this report is registered with the number STL/092/III/2023/BARESKRIM.
As for the alleged receipt of gratuities by the Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights through him, Yogi emphasized that all of them were not true. He denied all the proof of transfer on his behalf that Sugeng submitted to the KPK.
