JAKARTA - Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo confirmed that he would comply with the ongoing legal process at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). The Minister, who is familiarly called SYL, is ready to provide information in the process of investigating alleged corruption at the Ministry of Agriculture.

"As an ordinary citizen, I will undergo this whole range of obstacles," said Syahrul in a written statement, Friday, June 16.

Syahrul asked the public not to speculate about his examination. He said this investigation did not mean that he was already guilty.

"Investigators are looking for events suspected of being criminal acts," said the NasDem Party politician.

He also hopes that the KPK can investigate this allegation in accordance with applicable legal regulations. Moreover, the investigation of corruption in the ministry he leads is considered full of politicization.

"Hopefully in the future the law can be enforced properly," said Syahrul.

"I invite, let us respect the ongoing process at the KPK and do not take conclusions that precede the legal process and official information from the KPK," he continued.

Previously reported, the KPK confirmed the investigation into alleged corruption at the Ministry of Agriculture. This was in response to the widespread news circulating by the Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo along with two of his subordinates, KSD and HTA were also dragged into allegations of corruption

This action was carried out since early January. Dozens of people have been questioned, such as officials and state civil servants (ASN) at the ministry.
