JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) claims to have evidence of money from the corruption of the inactive Papua Governor Lukas Enembe flowing to a number of parties including the Free Papua Organization (OPM). The KPK has obtained initial information.

"We continue to investigate the investigation material. We already have initial information," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters in a written statement, Tuesday, June 27.

However, the KPK needed time to investigate. Ali said that the witness in the alleged money laundering case (TPPU) that ensnared Lukas would be clarified regarding this allegation.

"So that it can form clear legal facts and can be stated in the indictment of the KPK prosecutor later," he said.

Previously reported, Lukas allegedly received bribes from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijatono Lakka. Meanwhile, gratification is allegedly given by other private parties in order to get projects in Papua.

Tak hanya itu, Lukas dijerat dengan dugaan pidana pencucian uang. Langkah ini dilakukan setelah komisi antirasuah mengembangkan kasus suap dan gratifikasi yang menjeratnya.

Regarding money laundering, 27 of Lukas' assets were confiscated by the KPK. Among them are money worth Rp. 81,628,693,000; 5,100 US dollars; and 26,300 Singapore dollars; assets in the form of land and buildings; as well as precious metals.
