The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has urged the Legal Counsel for the Governor of Papua, Lukas Enembe, Aloysius Renwarin, to fulfill the summons of the Investigative Team. He was supposed to be examined as a witness regarding his client's alleged bribery, but refused to attend.
"We remind those concerned to be cooperative in attending as obedience to the law," said KPK spokesperson Ali Fikri in a written statement quoted on Sunday (20/11/2022).
1. Attorney Lukas Enembe claims that the KPK cannot examine him
Previously, Lukas Enembe's Attorney Team rejected the summons of the KPK Investigative Team because this was regulated by law. Lukas Enembe's attorney, Stefanus Roy Rening, argued that this was regulated in Article 16 of Law Number 18 of 2003 concerning advocates.
"Where is stated in the article, that 'Advocates cannot be prosecuted both civilly and criminally for carrying out their professional duties in good faith for the benefit of defending clients in court hearings'," said Roy, Friday (18/11/2022).
2. The Legal Counsel Team claims to have written to the KPK
Regarding the summons, Aloysius Renwarin claimed that he had asked the KPK for clarification. The legal team claims that the KPK received the letter on Thursday, November 17, 2022.
"Before being questioned, we asked the KPK for clarification regarding the summons of the two of us as witnesses in a case that made our client (Papua Governor Lukas Enembe) a suspect," said Roy.
3. Luke Enembe's legal team asked for PERADI's protection
In addition, the Legal Counsel Team also complained about the summons of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) against the Chairman of the Indonesian Advocates Association (PERADI) Luhut Pangaribuan. He admitted that he asked for Peradi's protection in this case.
"The point is Pak Luhut supports our steps, and will review our complaint as an effort by the organization to protect its members," he said.
