Contradictory Statements Surface regarding Firli Bahuri’s Knowledge of Alex Tirta: Legal Counsel Denies Previous Statement

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com November 2, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – Legal Counsel for the Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission Firli BahuriIan Iskandar denied his own statement about his client not knowing the Chief Executive of the Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI). Alex Tirta. This was after the circulation of a photo with Firli and Alex which was allegedly taken in 2019 in Palembang.

“Yes, I know. The one who doesn’t know the owner. As for Mr Alex Tirta, you know him. Is there really something wrong with knowing someone else?” said Iskandar when contacted TempoThursday, November 2 2023.

On Tuesday, October 29 2023, Iskandar stated to the media crew that Firli did not know Alex, following allegations of renting a house on Jalan Kertanegara Number 46 was financed by Alex. Iskandar stated that Firli did not know Alex because technically the person who took care of the house rental was Andreas through Ray White.

“That’s wrong. I don’t know the owner of the house, but Mr Alex does. “Yes, maybe there was a misrepresentation at that time,” he said.

Previously, the Coordinator of the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) Boyamin Saiman revealed Firli’s track record with Alex, after allegations emerged that the house rental fee of IDR 650 per year on Jalan Kertanegara Number 46 was paid by Alex.

“MAKI found a photo that took place in 2019 when Firli was thankfully appointed Kabaharkam (Head of the Security Management Agency) after becoming South Sumatra Regional Police Chief. “So before being appointed as Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission, there was a thanksgiving and there was Alex Tirta,” said Bonyamin in his statement, Thursday, November 2 2023.

This, said Bonyamin, refutes the statement by Firli’s lawyer, Ian Iskandar, who said that Firli did not know Alex, and also strengthens the various things that should be investigated in the alleged rent for Firli’s house being paid by Alex.

“Because Firli’s lawyer’s statements are many different and contradictory. In fact, it seems that Alex Tirta admits that he knows Firli Bahuri. But Firli’s lawyer said he didn’t know. “This is something that must be studied properly,” he said.

The house is rented to someone for 650 million per year.

Chairman of Corruption Eradication Commission Firli Bahuri Fails to Attend Dewas Examination, Raises Suspicion of Ethical Violations

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com October 28, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Jakarta –

Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission Firli Bahuri did not meet the inspection agenda by the Board of Supervisors (Dewas) Corruption Eradication Commission. He asked for the examination schedule to be postponed, while Dewas considered that the postponement of the agenda took too long.

This case started with a meeting between Firli and Syahrul Yasin Limpo who in the past was Minister of Agriculture. Now Syahrul is no longer in office after the Corruption Eradication Committee named Syahrul as a suspect in a corruption case within his ministry.

The photo of Firli and Syahrul’s meeting was highlighted by the public following the excitement of the KPK law enforcement process against Syahrul. The photo contains the incident of the meeting between Firli and Syahrul at the badminton court in the Mangga Besar area, Jakarta.

Seen in the photo, Firli is wearing a tracksuit with shorts and sneakers. Meanwhile, Syahrul did not wear a tracksuit but instead wore a short-sleeved shirt and jeans. Syahrul wears glasses and accessories such as bracelets on his left hand. There was a box of boiled corn and a glass between Firli and Syahrul, they both sat on the ceramic bench at that location. Apart from the two of them, there was actually another person sitting to the left of Syahrul.

The meeting raised speculation about a conflict of interest. How could Firli, who is the Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), meet a litigant, namely Syahrul? Firli once answered this that the meeting took place before Firli went to court at the KPK. Firli stated that the meeting took place in March 2022.

Long story short, someone reported Firli to the KPK Supervisory Board, the ethics body at the anti-corruption law enforcement institution. The agenda for summoning Firli and the four Deputy Chairmen of the KPK was scheduled by the KPK Council.

“We specifically focus on ethics, so the focus of the Dewas is examining alleged ethical violations, of which there are two. One, the alleged extortion by the KPK leadership. Second, the alleged meeting between Mr. FB and Mr. SYL on a badminton court,” said Dewas KPK member, Syamsuddin Haris.

Firli et al were asked to come to the KPK Dewas examination on Friday (27/10/2023). But Firli didn’t come.

Furthermore, Firli did not come, Dewas considered the delay too long:

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com October 26, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Jakarta –

Polda Metro Jaya is still investigating the case of alleged extortion by KPK leaders against former Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo (SYL). The police also conducted a search of the KPK chairman’s house Firli Bahuri which is located in Bekasi.

“Yes, there was a search,” said RT head, Rony Napitupulu when contacted, Thursday (26/10/2023).

Rony said that until now the police were at the location. The search, he continued, had just begun.

“There are already (many police),” he said.

detikcom has informed Polda Metro Jaya regarding this matter but there has been no response. Meanwhile, when met at the BPMJ building, Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Karyoto also did not answer clearly.

“Thank you,” he said as he left the location

Meanwhile, in the South Jakarta area, a house said to be related to Firli was also visited by the police this afternoon. A car bearing the name Polda Metro Jaya was parked near the house.

As is known, the SYL extortion case was reported to Polda Metro Jaya on August 12 2023. Public complaints were made regarding alleged blackmail by KPK leaders in handling cases at the Ministry of Agriculture in 2021.

The police then carried out a series of investigations by clarifying and collecting evidence in the case. After a case was held, the case moved to the investigation stage on Friday (6/10).

At least 3 suspected cases were found, including extortion, receiving gratuities, or receiving gifts related to handling cases at the Ministry of Agriculture (Kementan).

Dozens of witnesses have been questioned since the case moved to the investigation stage, including former Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo (SYL). Apart from that, there are Semarang Police Chief Commissioner Irwan Anwar, Firli Bahuri’s aide, Kevin Egananta, Director of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Dumas Tomi Murtomo, and expert witnesses from former KPK Deputy Chairmen Saut Situmorang and Mochammad Jasin.

Most recently, KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri has also been questioned by Polda Metro Jaya. Firli was originally questioned on Friday (20/10) last week. However, Firli was absent on the grounds that he needed to study the examination material and there were other activities for the KPK chairman that had been scheduled.

Polda Metro Jaya also rescheduled the inspection for Tuesday (24/10). However, in a letter to investigators, Firli Bahuri asked to be questioned at Bareskrim Polri even though the case was being handled by the Corruption Sub-Directorate, Ditreskrimsus Polda Metro Jaya.

Coordinating Minister Mahfud MD Calls for KPK to Handle Corruption Case Independently

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com October 12, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – Coordinating Minister for Politics, Law and Security Mahfud MD responding to calls for the removal of Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) leader Firli Bahuri in the midst of investigating the alleged extortion case against former Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo (SYL). He handed it over completely to the relevant anti-corruption agencies.

“Just leave it to the Corruption Eradication Committee to deal with it themselves,” said Mahfud MD, when met at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, Thursday, October 12 2023. “It’s called pressure, some are telling you to resign, some are not telling you to resign,” said Mahfud. According to Mahfud MD, each institution has the size or capacity to assess a problem.

Polda Metro Jaya is currently investigating a case of alleged extortion by the KPK leadership against SYL in handling alleged corruption cases at the ministry of agriculture in 2020-2023. The report emerged from a dumas or public complaint.

The Special Criminal Investigation Directorate of Polda Metro Jaya has rescheduled the examination of the KPK Chairman’s aide Firli Bahuri on Friday 13 October 2023. Firli’s aide was not present at the examination on Wednesday 11 October 2023.

The police have examined 11 witnesses regarding the alleged extortion case by the KPK leadership against SYL. Polda Metro Jaya investigators, this Thursday, again examined three witnesses regarding the extortion case. The examination material is about incidents of alleged criminal acts of corruption that occurred. Four of the 11 people who have been summoned by investigators from the Special Criminal Investigation Directorate (Ditreskrimsus) of Polda Metro Jaya are SYL, SYL’s driver, SYL’s aide and Semarang Police Chief Commissioner Irwan Anwar.

President Joko Widodo or Jokowi said that information about alleged blackmail carried out by the Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Firli Bahuri is still confusing. He admitted that he had not received detailed information about this matter. “I don’t know the problem in detail yet because (extortion information) is still confusing,” said Jokowi at Istora Senayan, Jakarta, Saturday afternoon, October 7 2023.

Jokowi said he did not want to comment much about Firli. He is worried that if he comments, he will be seen as interfering in the Firl Bahurii case. “I commented that later someone said to intervene,” he said. “So I’m still looking for correct information about what this case is like.”

KPK is currently investigating three clusters of alleged corruption at the Ministry of Agriculture, namely extortion in office, gratification and money laundering crimes. Corruption Eradication Committee investigators have searched a number of places related to this investigation, including the official residence of the Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo and the office of the ministry of agriculture some time ago.

From a search at Syahrul Yasin Limpo’s official residence, KPK investigators found tens of billions in rupiah and foreign currency. The KPK also found 12 firearms which have been reported to Polda Metro Jaya. Syahrul Yasin Limpo resigned from his position as minister of agriculture due to allegations of corruption that surrounded him.
