TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta:KPK Urged to Complete BLBI Bribery Allegation Case
TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta: The Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) urged the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to be serious in handling the bribery case of Attorney General Urip Tri Gunawan. KPK must be able to clarify the relationship between arresting Urip and the termination of investigation into two Bank Indonesia Liquidity Assistance (BLBI) debtors, Sjamsul Nursalim and Anthony Salim.

“Don't let the case stop only at the level of bribery, (it) must be the relationship regarding the termination of BLBI investigation,” said ICW , Emerson Juntho, when contacted by Tempo, Tuesday afternoon (4/3).

According to Emerson, probably the bribery can be related to the termination of the BLBI case investigation with the reason of money transfer between the two people who were in the opposite position as regards the BLBI case.

ICW suspects that the bribery was a part of the scenario. KPK was asked to take over the solution into the BLBI case. The case not only comprises the bribery which involved the 35 attorney general’s team of the BLBI case, but also another agenda connected to the BLBI case.

“KPK shouldn't stop there, there must be many people involved, not only those people,” he said.
