Constitutional Court says KPK case fabricated

The Constitutional Court says there was a possible fabrication of evidence used to incriminate two Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) leaders following the revelation of a series of controversial wiretapped conversations involving businessman Anggodo Widjojo and top officials at the National Police and the Attorney General’s Office (AGO).
“After we heard the recordings we discovered several clues that the implication of the KPK deputies had been fabricated,” Constitutional Court member Achmad Sadiki said Wednesday.
The recordings played at the court on Nov. 3 overheard the voice of Anggodo requesting that officers of the National Police and the AGO make and find evidence that could support charges leveled against KPK deputies Bibit Samad Rianto and Chandra M Hamzah.
The KPK deputies were accused of abusing their power, receiving bribes and extorting Anggodo’s brother, Anggoro Widjojo, who had previously been named suspect in a corruption case involving his company PT Masaro Radiokom, and currently resides in Singapore where he cannot be extradited by Indonesian authorities.

What no demos against recalcitant Singapore? Scores of Indonesians keep their I'll-gotten money in Singapore banks and the city state has become a haven for shady characters who fled from Indonesian justice. So why is the great bendera chieftain Bonaventura silent? Has he been bribed as well?
