Markus Junianto Sihaloho – Controversial legislator Adang Daradjatun has angrily rejected claims his wife is healthy after a photo was released that allegedly shows one of Indonesia's most wanted fugitives enjoying a shopping trip in Singapore.

"She is still under medical supervision," the legislator from the Prosperous Justice Party said of his fugitive wife, Nunun Nurbaeti. "She keeps being scanned because there's a brain [blood vessel] constriction problem."

Adang, a former deputy chief of the National Police, has consistently refused to help authorities repatriate Nunun, who is accused of having distributed traveler's checks to lawmakers in return for voting Miranda Goeltom into a deputy governor position at the central bank.

Tempointeraktif.com on Wednesday published a dark photo during what is alleged to have been a shopping trip in Singapore. Tempo claimed to have received the photo from a source working in an Indonesian state institution.

Adang challenged people to prove that the information revealed by the photo is true. "Please prove it, who took the picture should give it to the KPK (Corruption Eradication Commission)," Adang said. "I've already said that I will comply with the legal process conducted by the KPK. So those who have material, or the photo, should give it to the KPK."

Adang insisted his wife is still ill. When asked about his latest communication with his wife, Adang answered that Nunun is under a doctor's supervision with the option of being hospitalized or treated as an outpatient.

"Since the beginning she could be an outpatient, but she has kept on being scanned because of her brain constriction." Adang said due to his wife's condition, she is not allowed to walk in shopping centers.
