"Nazaruddin should be returned to Indonesia soon and be processed based on the law, the Setara Institute said here on Monday.
Nazaruddin needed protection because he had mentioned a number of PD`s leaders and government officials who he alleged also had links with alleged corruption case in the construction of a SEA Games athlete house in Palembang, South Sumatra.
He expressed hope that the examinations of Nazaruddin would be carried out transparently so that there would be no intervention from other related parties mentioned by him to have been implicated.
Hendardi said that the future of PD would experience a serious dynamics ahead in connection with the arrest of Nazaruddin.
The problem is that Nazaruddin`s accusations he made during his hiding overseas --which are believed to be based on facts and are supported by documents-- touched on all of the main elements of the PD.
Nazaruddin was caught with his wife and several other people at 2 am local time in Cartagena, Colombia, on Monday, police said.
He is wanted as a suspect in a bribery case linked to a Sea Games athletes village project in Palembang, South Sumatra. He fled to Singapore a day before the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) asked the ministry of justice and human rights to issue a travel ban for him on May 24.
He had been to several countries before he was caught in Cartagena, the head of the National Police`s public relations division, Inspector General Anton Bachrul Alam, said.
"Nazaruddin departed from Singapore to Vietnam and then he went to Cambodia and by a chartered plane to Bogota through Madrid, Spain, and then the Republic of Dominica," he said. (*)
