"Oka is questioned as a witness for IHP [Irvanto Hendra Pambudi]. SN [Setya Novanto] is probed as a witness for IHP and MOM [Made Oka Masagung]," said KPK spokesman Febri Diansyah in a written message on Monday, March 26.

Irvanto is suspected of involvement in the case since the beginning through his company, PT Murakabi Sejahtera. He also allegedly attended meetings with the e-KTP supplier team at a shop in the Fatmawati area.

Setya claimed there were flows of graft funds from Made to several House members, and that Made acted as a middleman and received the money from graft convict Andi Narogong.

"Mr. Made Oka and Andi came to my house to give the money to House members, two important ones, do you remember, Sir?" said Setya at the Anti-corruption Court on Wednesday, March 14.

Made Oka came to the KPK office today, at around 09:30 am. Setya Novanto arrived at 13:00 pm. Setya balked at commenting on the case when asked by reporters.
