JAKARTA (Yosefardi) – Alex Noerdin, South Sumatra Governor and politician from Golkar Party, has failed to answer the second call from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for questioning session on Thursday (Apr. 16).
Actually, Alex will be questioned as a witness for Rizal Abdullah, former Head of South Sumatra’s Public Works office and suspect in the case.
According to KPK’s indictment against El Idris, former convict in the case, Rizal Abdullah had, among others, received fees from the athlete dormitory project.
The indictment also mentions Idris’ confession about PT Duta Graha Indah’s (DGI) plan to give a 2.5% fee from the total Rp191 billion fund of the athlete dormitory’s construction project to Alex Noerdin. PT DGI is the winner of the project tender.
Alex, however, has denied all allegations against him related to the athlete dormitory case, including allegation on receiving fee from El Idris or PT DGI. (haryantosuharman@yosefardi.com)
