JAKARTA - Head of the Papua Public Works and Spatial Planning (PUPR) Agency, Gerius One Yoman, was efficient after being questioned by KPK investigators as a witness for the alleged bribery and gratification case of Lukas Enembe (LE).

Gerius was reluctant to inform the KPK investigators about the examination material. He also did not respond when asked about the documents he submitted to the anti-corruption agency.

"I don't know, I don't know," said Gerius, quoted by ANTARA, Friday, May 19.

He did not say much when asked questions by reporters. Nevertheless, Gerius said he was being questioned by investigators in his capacity as a witness for the inactive Papuan Governor suspect Lukas Enembe.

"I am a witness, the statement is," he said briefly.

Meanwhile, Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikridi Jakarta, Friday, said investigators were examining Gerius as a witness for the suspect Lukas Enembe (LE).

"Today, the examination of witness TPK (criminal acts of corruption) bribery and gratification related to work or projects sourced from the Papua Province APBD for suspect LE," said Ali Fikri.

Previously, Wednesday (3/5), the KPK also named the head of the Papua PUPR service as a new suspect in the case.

"KPK has named the Head of PUPR for Papua Province as a suspect in this case," said Ali.

The determination of the suspect was carried out after investigators again found that there was a role for other parties together with the suspect LE to receive bribes and gratuities from various infrastructure development projects in the Papua Provincial Government.
