Indonesia KPK Summons Two House Members

The national Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has scheduled questioning over two officials of the House of Representatives (DPR)’s Budget Committee named Olly Dondokambey and Tamsil Linrung, today.

Both Deputies of Budget Committee will undergo interrogation as witnesses of the Regional Infrastructure Development Acceleration (PPID) bribery case against suspect Wa Ode Nurhayati, who was a former member of the Budget Committee.

“They’re scheduled for examination against the suspect, WON,” said Chief of KPK’s Reporting & Information, Priharsa Nugraha, in Jakarta. WON is the initials of a politician from the National Mandate Party (PAN), Wa Ode Nurhayati.

As for Tamsil and Olly, it is not their first summons. They had been summoned by KPK for quizzes in another case. Meanwhile, in relation with the PPID bribery case which involves two employees of the Minister of Manpower & Transmigration, Muhaimin Iskandar, Olly and Tamsil had been examined twice earlier.

KPK has named Wa Ode as a suspect in the PPID budget bribery case in Aceh. Wa Ode allegedly received a bribe as regards the allocation of PPID project budget of Rp40 billion for three regencies in Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam.

The three regencies were Aceh Besar, Pidi Jaya, and Bener Meriah. Wa Ode is being charged to have violated article 12 letter a and b and or article 5 section 2 and or article 11 of the Corruption Eradication Law.
