Indonesia parliament speaker taken into custody
Novanto, clad in an orange vest worn by detainees of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), was transferred from a hospital on Sunday night into a KPK detention facility. He is one of the most senior politicians to be detained by the agency, popular among ordinary Indonesians for targeting members of the establishment suspected of abuse of power. Novanto was arrested on Friday night but his detention was postponed while he received treatment for injuries suffered in a car crash the day before. ?Delay of the arrest is no longer needed,? as a medical statement showed Novanto did not need further hospital treatment, Laode Muhammad Syarif, the deputy head of the agency, said in a video on its official Periscope page. On Sunday night, Novanto told reporters he was still suffering from vertigo after the crash that he said had injured a leg, an arm and his head. ?I thought I would be given time for recovery, but I obey the law,? Novanto was quoted by news website Kumparan. com as saying. Novanto will be held for 20 days for questioning, said KPK spokesman Febri Diansyah. He will be detained in a sparsely-furnished holding cell with some mattresses and a shared toilet. Graft agency officials tried to arrest Novanto, the chairman of Golkar, Indonesia?s second-largest party and partner in the ruling coalition, at his house in Jakarta late on Wednesday. But they failed to find him, sparking speculation that he had gone into hiding. Later, Novanto was involved in a car accident and his lawyer, Fredrich Yunadi, said a journalist was driving the vehicle and interviewing his client at the time. The car crash was found to be an accident, media cited Jakarta?s deputy director of traffic police as saying, dismissing speculation that the mishap was staged. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Indonesia parliament speaker taken into custody || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
