Seasoned lawyer OC Kaligis, who has been detained by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for alleged bribery, is determined to finish writing a book about his 10 wives and 20 children while spending his days behind bars.

At the KPK headquarters, Kaligis told reporters that the book was '€œalmost done'€ to the point that he had already pondered a proper title. '€œI'€™m optimistic I can finish the book,'€ he said, but he wondered how he would get the draft of his book out of his office, which has been closed since being searched by KPK agents on Monday.

OC Kaligis in orange, maybe there is justice in the world.

It'€™s really embarrassing, once if I am not wrong, he said that he did not need to earn any more money, as he had enough to last six generations.

Isn'€™t he a very haughty lawyer? He is advanced in years and is going to end his days in prison.

It must be embarrassing to have a grandfather caught red- handed by the KPK at a time when the commission is considered toothless. How sad his family must be.

He is a professor, a lawyer and a Nasdem executive and should ideally be a public role model.
