"The summoning of Bu (Mrs) Megawati is not connected with the settlement of the case of traveler`s check bribery. But she is summoned to be questioned as a witness in favour of the suspects, upon the request of suspects," KPK spokesman Johan Budi said here on Friday.
So if the former president would come on Monday (Feb 21) at KPK she would not become a witness over facts of the alleged case of bribery but as a witness favoring suspects, he said.
"So there is no contradiction with what KPK has said before that it would not question Bu Megawati by asking her to become a witness," he said.
Asked if KPK would also summon Hasyim Muzadi as requested by Max Moein, he said he did not know yet.
He said KPK had not yet received confirmation if Megawati would meet its summons sent upon the request of PDIP cadre Max Moein.
Max Moein earlier asked KPK to also question Megawati and Taufiq Kiemas (her husband) because he thought they could clarify the traveler`s check issue.
"Yes, we are just executor. We are only party cadres who received from the faction`s treasurer," Moein said. (*)
