JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to summon Supreme Court Secretary Hasbi Hasan. He will be summoned as a suspect in the bribery case that ensnared him.

"Soon we will call back this week," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters in a written statement, Monday, July 10.

Ali has not specified when the summons will be made. However, Hasbi was reminded to attend to meet with investigators.

Moreover, the pretrial he submitted has been rejected by the South Jakarta District Court (PN). "We remind you that the cooperative suspect is present to fulfill the summons of the investigation team," said Ali.

Hasbi filed a pretrial lawsuit with the South Jakarta District Court for not accepting being named a suspect. This lawsuit is registered under number 49/Pid.Pra/2023/PN JKT.SEL which was later rejected on Monday, July 10.

The panel of judges is of the opinion that the KPK is in accordance with legal procedures when determining Hasbi as a suspect. The development of this case also follows the existing standard rules.

Previously, the KPK named Hasbi Hasan and Independent Commissioner of PT Wika Beton, Dadan Tri Yudianto as suspects in alleged bribery in case management.

The KPK suspects that Hasbi Hasan received money from Dadan Tri Yudianto. He is suspected of pocketing part of the Rp11.2 billion received by the former Independent Commissioner of PT Wika Beton.

The money was called by the anti-corruption commission as a fee for cassation management with the defendant Budiman Gandi Suparman in the Supreme Court. The giving was made after Dadan asked Hasbi to help secure the KSP Inti Dana case.
