he business partner of Deputy Jakarta Governor Sandiaga Uno, Andreas Tjahjadi, who together with Sandiaga has been reported to local authorities on land-embezzlement allegations, has been named a suspect by the Jakarta Police.
Sandiaga and Andreas were reported by Edward Soeryadjaya in March this year for allegedly misappropriating funds in the sale of a plot of land in Curug, South Tangerang, in 2012.
Jakarta Police general crimes director head Nico Afinta said Sandiaga would be questioned as a witness in the case.
“We’re still completing Andreas’ investigation report,” Nico said on Wednesday as quoted by kompas.com.
Andreas would be questioned this week and the interrogation results would determine the course of the investigation, Nico said.
“When Pak Andreas fulfills our summons, we will use his statements as a reference for further investigation,” Nico said.
Sandiaga has denied the allegations, saying the case has been fabricated for political gains.
