JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) reminded the witness in the money laundering case (TPPU) of the inactive Papua Governor Lukas Enembe to cooperate. The warning was given after the President Director of PT RDG, Gibrael Isaak and the Director of SOS Aviation, Tina Sutinah, were absent from the investigator's summons.

Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said the two witnesses should have been examined on Thursday, August 31. The examination was held at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.

"The two witnesses did not attend without confirmation," Ali told reporters, Tuesday, August 5.

"KPK reminds to be present to fulfill the summons of the investigative team in accordance with the rescheduling that will be sent immediately," he continued.

The anti-corruption commission suspects that Lukas Enembe has a private plane. The ownership was revealed after the KPK investigated the alleged money laundering crime (TPPU) he had committed.

The case of money laundering by Lukas was uncovered after he was suspected of accepting bribes from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijatono Lakka. Then, he is said to have received gratuities from other private parties who want to get projects in Papua.

In the case of 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.
