JAKARTA - Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo (SYL) fulfilled the summons of investigators from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) today. SYL will be questioned regarding allegations of corruption at the Ministry of Agriculture which is being investigated.

"The information is here," said Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur when confirmed, Monday, June 19.

Meanwhile, Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said the investigation was still ongoing.

"(Activities are carried out, red) in C1," he said.

C1 is the name for the KPK building in the Jalan HR Rasuna Said area, South Jakarta. C1 is currently the office of the Supervisory Board and the Center for anti-corruption or Anti-corruption Learning Center (ACLC).

Previously, the KPK confirmed the investigation into alleged corruption at the Ministry of Agriculture. This was in response to the circulation of the Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo along with two of his subordinates, KSD and HTA, who were also involved in 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.

As for Syahrul's summons, he was going to be questioned on Friday, June 16. However, politicians reasoned that they had to go to India so they asked for a postponement of the examination until June 27.

However, the KPK continued to call him on Monday, June 19. The reason is that investigators want to ask for information to be analyzed with other examined parties so that criminal incidents can be quickly found.
