However, Mieke said the hotel was listed in letters belonging to the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijatono Lakka.

“The witness said that there was a house for the Leopard that was owned by Mr. Lukas Enembe. Did you know that this is related to the Angkasa Hotel?” asked one of the prosecutors at the Corruption Court at the Central Jakarta District Court, Wednesday (9/8).

“I know,” Mieke replied.

“But as far as the witness knows it was Pak Rijatono Lakka who woke him up?” asked the Prosecutor further.

“Yes,” replied Mike.

“Who owns this Angkasa Hotel? Just say so,” asked the prosecutor.

“That’s what’s confusing, sir,” replied Mieke.

“Confused how?” asked the Prosecutor.

“As far as Jayapura says it’s Pak Lukas’ hotel,” Mieke replied.

“Who do you mean from Jayapura? Jayapura people?” asked the Prosecutor further.

“Yes,” replied Mike.

“Is that the hotel Mr. Lukas?” asked the Prosecutor.

“But according to the letters, everything is in the name of Mr. Tono,” Mieke replied.

Rijatono is the adopted son of Lukas Enembe

The director of PT Tabi Anugerah Pharmindo, the director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua and the beneficiary of CV Walibhu Rijatono Lakka are said to have been adopted as children by Lukas Enembe. The name Rijatono Lakka is even pinned with the surname ‘Enembe’.

“I clarified again in BAP number 103: I did not know about the closeness between Mr. Rijatono Lakka and Mr. Lukas Enembe, but Mr. Rijatono Lakka once said that the person concerned was adopted as a child by Lukas Enembe and got the Enembe surname behind the name Rijatono Lakka. Rijatono Lakka once said that Rijatono Lakka was closer to the Governor, Mrs. Yulce Wenda [istri Lukas]. Is that true?” said the KPK prosecutor reading out Mieke’s dossier at the Central Jakarta Tipikor Court, Wednesday (9/8).

“That’s right,” Mike answered.

Mieke said Rijatono was very close to Lukas. The two of them even had frequent meetings.

“Have you ever participated in (in the meeting between Pak Rijatono and Pak Lukas)?” asked the prosecutor.

“Only once,” said Mieke.

“Have you ever come to Mr. Lukas Enembe’s house with Mr. Rijatono Lakka?” asked the prosecutor again.

“Yes,” he said.

Mieke explained that Rijatono was invited by Lukas during the celebration of the Leopard House which is located on Jalan KRI Macan Tutul 10, Trikora Village, North Jayapura District.

“Is that a private house or?” asked the prosecutor.

“I don’t know whether it’s a private house or an official house,” said Mieke.

“Witness knows why Mr. Rijatono Lakka was then invited by Mr. Lukas Enembe? continued the prosecutor.

“You are close to Mr. Lukas,” said Mieke.

“Did Mr. Rijatono Lakka ever work on the house that was made for the celebration?” asked the prosecutor.

“According to people, they said yes, but I don’t know the details,” Mieke replied.

Rijatono is also said to have been part of Lukas’ successful team.

“Ever heard [Rijatono tim sukses Lukas],” said Mike.

In the KPK prosecutor’s indictment, Rijatono is alleged to have bribed Lukas in the amount of IDR 35 billion related to a project for the procurement of goods and services within the Papua Provincial Government for the 2018-2021 Fiscal Year.

The bribe consisted of Rp. 1 billion in cash and Rp. 34,429,555,850 for the construction or renovation of physical assets.

PAPUA NEW GUINEA – Not only Egypt is a famous country. However, who would have thought Dani tribe in remote Papua New Guinea mummified elders they most respected.

The tribe in Papua New Guinea preserved the bodies of their chiefs by embalming the entire body and preserving other dead people by smearing their bodies with animal oil and smoke.

Remarkably, the tribesmen who had died, although pitch black and wrinkled, the attempt to preserve the body of their chief was almost perfectly successful.

Clearly visible with all the characteristics can still be distinguished easily. The man carrying it is the current chief Eli Mabel, holding one of his ancestors who came nine generations before.

Agat Mamete Mabel is a mummified human who once ruled over a tribe some 250 years ago.

Mummification was a technique reserved only for members of the highest tribe and Agat Mamete Mabel was the last person to do it.

The deceased parents are mummified in traditional pig tusks strung around the torso, with hairy head pieces and the usual penis gourd

in fact, Christian missionaries and those of the Muslims urged the Dani to bury their dead, a tradition the natives have since adopted, according to Eli Mabel.

However, there are certain traditions that they must continue so as not to lose their identity in the modern world.

“We have to protect our culture, including the mummification ceremonies, the way we treat them, and preserve and burn them.” Eli Mabel told AFP.

While Eli Mabel is currently responsible for ensuring that his mummified ancestors are preserved, he says that this responsibility will one day fall on all four children.
