JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will continue the trial of alleged ethical violations that ensnared KPK Deputy Chairman Johanis Tanak. KPK chairman Firli Bahuri will testify today, Friday, August 4.

"Continuing the examination of witnesses, Mr. FB (Firli Bahuri)," said KPK Supervisory Board member Syamsuddin Haris to reporters in a written statement, Friday, August 4.

Syamsuddin said Firli would be the only witness to be examined at the trial. This examination is a reschedule because he is currently serving in Manado on Thursday, August 27.

Meanwhile, two other leaders, namely the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Nawawi Pomolango and Nurul Ghufron, had been questioned at that time. They were asked for information about their activities on March 27 or when Johanis contacted the Acting Director General of Mineral and Coal at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Idris Froyoto Sihite.

"Only Mr. FB (the witness submitted, ed)," he said.

Johanis had to be tried ethically because the conversation with Idris was spread on social media. There are several screenshots uploaded to the account containing discussions about work and there are sentences 'behind the screen'.

It didn't stop there, there was a conversation that turned out to be discussing a Mining Business License (IUP). Responding to this, Johanis Tanak said the conversation took place before he was appointed as a leader.

He admitted that he was already friends with Idris when he was still together at the Prosecutor's Office. Johanis also admitted that he did not know that his interlocutor had become the Acting Director General of Mineral and Coal because previously he served as Head of Legal Bureau at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

"I contacted him because I was just before retirement, how many months left for me to retire. If I continue to retire, what should I do, so how can there be new activities," said Tanak when contacted by VOI, Wednesday, April 12 evening.
