Legal Expert Values KPK’s Tactics in Tracking Down Suspect Harun Masiku

Prof. Hibnu Nugroho: KPK‘s Hasto Kristiyanto Tersangka Designation Part of corruption-eradication-commission-kpk-still-using-sekjen-pdi-ps-phone-to-investigate-harun-masiku-case/” title=”<p><strong>Indonesia's Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Still Using Sekjen PDI-P's Phone to Investigate Harun Masiku Case</strong></p>”>Harun Masiku Probe Strategy

Jakarta, Dec 24 – Prof. Hibnu Nugroho, the Dean of Law at Universitas Jenderal Soedirman (Unsoed), shed light on the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK)’s designation of Sekjen PDIP Hasto Kristiyanto as a suspect. Prof. Hibnu believes this move is part of KPK’s strategy to trace the whereabouts of Harun Masiku.

"Perhaps this is part of KPK’s strategy to obtain information about Harun Masiku," Prof. Hibnu said in an interview. "We hope that during the trial, we will gain information about Harun Masiku’s whereabouts – whether he is still alive or not."

Prof. Hibnu added, "This seems to be a legal action aimed at unraveling the mystery surrounding Harun Masiku, as he remains at large."

However, Prof. Hibnu raised questions about the timing of KPK’s announcement regarding the bribery of former KPU commissioner Wahyu Setiawan. He pointed out that Wahyu is already free from punishment, and it’s unusual for the designator to be far from the designated.

"Pemberinya ini kan dugaannya dia (Hasto) pemberi, bersama itu (Harun), nah ini memang suatu penegak hukum yang ada mulur-mulur, harusnya kan ketika pemberi sudah diputus ya penerimanya, pertanyaannya kenapa sekarang baru dilakukan seperti ini," said Prof. Hibnu.

He also emphasized the need for KPK to remain professional and wrap up the case soon. "Kasus ini juga belum kadaluwarsa, baru mungkin 3 atau 4 tahun karena delik suap, penyuap dan penerima harus ada. Nggak mungkin penerima udah dihukum masa penyuapnya tidak. Siapa penyuapnya? Nah di sini saya kira harus detail, tapi cuma harus ditegaskan kenapa baru sekarang, kenapa tidak dulu-dulu, kalau kasus-kasus lain kan langsung cluster penerima, dan cluster pemberi gitu," he said.

The KPK named Hasto Kristiyanto as a suspect in a case involving corruption related to the manipulation of legislative elections, as per Sprin.Dik/153/DIK.00/01/12/2024. Hasto was charged under Articles 5(1)a or 5(1)b or 13 of the Corruption Eradication Law.

In a separate development, KPK announced Hasto Kristiyanto as a suspect in aiding and abetting the escape of Harun Masiku. KPK also clarified Hasto’s role in the scandal, highlighting his involvement in manipulating the electoral list to include Harun Masiku as a candidate.

In the 2019 legislative elections, Harun Masiku obtained 5,878 votes, far less than PDIP’s Rizky Aprilia who got 44,402 votes. Hasto allegedly attempted to hinder Rizky’s chances of becoming an MP by replacing her with Harun Masiku.

KPK Reveals Reason Behind Delayed Arrest of PDIP Secretary in Graft Case Involving Ex-Legislative Candidate

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has finally named Hasto Kristiyanto, Secretary-General of the Indonesia Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), as a suspect in a corruption case involving Harun Masiku, a former PDIP legislative candidate. The KPK’s explanation for the delay in his arrest has now been made public.

KPK Chair Setyo Budiyanto stated that the reason for the late arrest of Hasto was due to the investigations team’s increasing confidence in the evidence they had gathered. "It’s only now that the team feels confident because of the comprehensiveness of the evidence," said Setyo during a press conference at the KPK headquarters on Tuesday (24/12).

The KPK chief explained that this confidence stemmed from various investigative processes and interviews conducted by the team. This includes the seizure of electronic evidence related to the case.

Hasto has been questioned by the KPK multiple times since January 2020 regarding this case. He has also testified in the Corruption Court in Jakarta. The last time Hasto was interrogated was in June 2024.

Harun Masiku, who is suspected of bribing a KPU commissioner, has been on the run for five years. He is alleged to have prepared around IDR 850 million to secure a seat in the 2019-2024 House of Representatives.

The case, involving Wahyu Setiawan, the former KPU commissioner, has resulted in several convictions. Wahyu was sentenced to seven years in prison, while Agustiani Tio Fridelina and Saeful Bahri received prison sentences ranging from one year eight months to four years.

The case is still ongoing, with two other individuals, Agustiani and Saeful, being processed by the KPK.

KPK Names PDIP Secretary General As corruption Suspect in PAW Case

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto as a suspect in a bribery case involving the replacement of DPR RI members with KPU commissioners. This includes Harun Masiku.

KPK Chairman Setyo Budiyanto stated that Hasto Kristiyanto, along with Harun Masiku and others, is suspected of bribing Wahyu Setiawan, a KPU commissioner, to switch positions with an DPR RI member who had passed away. The case details are outlined in the search initial notice (Spring dik/153/DIK.00/01/12/2024) dated December 23, 2024.

Hasto Kristiyanto’s status as a suspect was announced during a press conference at the KPK headquarters in Jakarta on Tuesday, December 24, 2024. The case was first exposed by KPK on Friday, December 20, 2024.

Hasto has been repeatedly questioned by KPK investigators since January 2020 and has also testified at the Jakarta Corruption Court. His last questioning session took place in June 2024.

Harun Masiku, a former PDIP legislative candidate, had been at large for five years. He is suspected of bribing Wahyu Setiawan to replace Nazarudin Kiemas who won a DPR seat but passed away. Harun allegedly prepared around IDR 850 million for this purpose.

Wahyu Setiawan was sentenced to seven years in prison, as per the Supreme Court’s decision (No. 1857/K/Pid.Sus/2021) and was transferred to the Kedungpane Correctional Facility in Semarang, Central Java, in June 2021. However, Wahyu was granted conditional release on October 6, 2023.

Unraveling the Role of PDIP’s Secretary General in the Harun Masiku Case: KPK’s Revelations

Breaking: KPK Names PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto as Suspect in PAW Harun Masiku Vote-Buying Scandal

In a major development, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has officially named Secretary General of the PDIP, Hasto Kristiyanto, as a suspect in the vote-buying case involving the parliamentary seat (PAW) of Harun Masiku.

KPK Chairman, Setyo Budiyanto, detailed Hasto’s crucial role in the scam during a press conference at the KPK headquarters in South Jakarta on Tuesday (24/2/2024). "Hasto, along with Harun Masiku and their accomplices, gave bribes to Wahyu Setiawan and Agus Setiani. First, Hasto placed Harun Masiku on the PDIP electoral list for South Sumatra, despite him originating from South Sulawesi’s Toraja region," Setyo explained.

During the 2019 legislative elections, Harun Masiku received 5,878 votes, significantly fewer than fellow PDIP candidate Rizky Aprilia, who garnered 44,402 votes. In that scenario, Rizky was expected to replace the late PDIP legislator Nazarudin Kiemas.

KPK alleges that Hasto actively worked to obstruct Rizky’s election as a PDIP legislator. He took several steps to prevent Nazarudin’s seat from being filled by Rizky, attempting to replace her with Harun Masiku.

"Hasto parallely tried to convince Rizky to step down, allowing Harun to take her place. However, Rizky refused," Setyo clarified.

The commission also found evidence suggesting Hasto asked Saeful Bahri to meet Rizky in Singapore to convince her to resign. This effort, too, proved unsuccessful.

Unable to secure Rizky’s resignation, Hasto reportedly resorted to bribery, offering money to then-KPU Commissioner Wahyu Setiawan.

"Hasto worked with Harun Masiku, Saeful Bahri, and DTI in bribing Wahyu Setiawan and Agustinus Tiu," Setyo concluded.

KPK Adds PDIP‘s Hasto Kristiyanto as Suspect in Vote Buying Case Linked to Harun Masiku

JAKARTA – The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named Secretary General of PDIP, Hasto Kristiyanto, as a suspect in a vote-buying case involving the replacement of a PDIP legislator. This case is connected to Harun Masiku, a PDIP legislator who remains at large.

The case traced back to the KPK’s sting operation on January 8, 2020, wherein commissioners of the General Elections Commission (KPU), Wahyu Setiawan and Rahmat Tonidaya, were apprehended at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. Wahyu was alleged to have accepted bribes from Harun Masiku to facilitate his replacement of the late Nazarudin Kiemas, a PDIP legislator.

During the operation, eight individuals were arrested from various locations across Jakarta and Central Java. These include Agustiani Tio Feidelina (ATF), a former Bawaslu member, who was found with SGD 400 million, Saeful, a private individual, and his driver Ilham, lawyer Doni, and two of Wahyu’s family members, Ika Indayani and Wahyu Budiani.

Despite intensive efforts, Harun Masiku remained at large. His last known whereabouts were near the Police Science University, but attempts to capture him were unsuccessful. Subsequently, KPK added Harun to its wanted list, designating him as an active fugitive since January 17, 2020. Harun is being sought for his suspected involvement in the bribery of a public official.
