Medan (Antara Bali) - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to immediately question Agriculture Minister Suswono as a witness in connection with former party leader's bribery case linked to cow meat import, KPK chief Abraham Samad said.

He said after giving a lecture on improving the capacity of law enforcers in handling corruption cases the KPK chief said he knew about it from a report from a KPK deputy.

"He will be questioned soon," he added.

He said the questioning was needed to enrich KPK's investigation of the case of the former president of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), Luthfi Hasan Ishaaq.

Samad said there were also other witnesses that would possibly be questioned besides Suswono in an effort to find possible other persons involved in the case.

When asked on KPK's plan to block Luthfi's accounts Samad said that it has not yet been done as the procedures are still being prepared. (IGT)
