On Friday, KPK personnel searched a house on Jl. Tebet Timur Raya, South Jakarta, and confiscated several asset ownership documents and two cars. “The house does not belong to either Andi or his brother,” Febri said.

The KPK arrested Andi and named him a suspect on March 23 for allegedly bribing Home Ministry officials and several House of Representatives members in his attempt to get House approval for the Rp 5.9 trillion (US$442.71 million) budget for the e-ID card project.
Febri emphasized that in handling this case, the KPK would not stop only at Sugiharto and Irman, two Home Ministry officials named suspects in the case who were currently undergoing trial. “The KPK will investigate further through the existing information and facts gathered from the trial,” he said.
