The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) says it will question Democratic Party chairman Anas Urbaningrum for a second time, on Wednesday, over graft allegations surrounding the construction of the Hambalang Sports Center in West Java.

“We have scheduled to summon Anas Urbaningrum on Wednesday morning at 9:30 a.m. The questioning session will be a continuation of the previous questioning, which took place the same day last week,” KPK spokesman, Johan Budi, told reporters at the commission’s headquarters in Jakarta on Tuesday.

However, he declined to reveal the questions that would be asked of Anas during the session. Instead, he merely confirmed that new material would arise from tomorrow’s questioning.

Former Democratic Party treasurer Muhammad Nazaruddin, who was convicted for accepting bribes in the SEA Games’ athletes’ village graft case, repeatedly accused Anas of having been involved in the Rp 1.52 trillion (US$161.12 million) Hambalang project.
