TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) spokeswoman Yuyuk Andriati said that the KPK will appear in the first hearing of a pretrial motion filed by the House of Representatives Speaker Setya Novanto at South Jakarta District Court today. Novanto has challenged the anti-graft agency’s decision to name him as a suspect in the electronic identity cards (e-KTP) graft case.

However, the spokesperson said that the KPK did not divulge details about the witnesses and evidence prepared for Setya Novanto pretrial motion.

On the hearing, Golkar Party secretary-general Idrus Marham said that chairman Novanto would not be able to appear before the court for health reasons. The chairman also skipped KPK questioning as a suspect in the e-KTP case.

The KPK earlier named House Speaker Setya Novanto as a suspect for allegedly enriching himself or others in the procurement of the e-KTP project that caused Rp2.3 trillion in state losses.
