Muladi to attend corruption summons

JAKARTA: Responding to a summons from the interdepartmental
anticorruption team, National Resilience Institute (Lemhannas)
Governor Muladi denied on Saturday any involvement in a graft
case at the State Secretariat.

Muladi, who was the state secretary during B.J. Habibie's
administration, said he had never issued any approval letter
regarding the transfer of a land concession in the Bung Karno
Sports Stadium complex to PT Indobuild, owned by businessman
Pontjo Sutowo, from the State Secretariat's control.

He said the letter was "faked by my (direct) predecessor",
adding that he would therefore file a lawsuit against him after
attending his summons on Tuesday.

Muladi was replaced by Ali Rahman, who was only in office for
around three months during the administration of Abdurrahman "Gus
Dur" Wahid. --JP
