Irmawati, Jakarta – The police have examined several key witnesses in the murder of human activist Munir. One of them is Ongen.

"In addition to investigating, we've given legal protection to the witnesses," said National Police (Polri) Chief, Gen. Sutanto, during a working meeting with the House Law Commission, yesterday (28/5).

However, Sutanto was not willing to name the other key witnesses besides Ongen. According to Sutanto, the police found legal evidence that can be filed as a judicial review by the general prosecutor.

A Tempo source at the police explained that Ongen has been asked for testimony several times. During the first and second examination, Ongen was silent. "But then he started giving testimony."

According to the source, the police have also checked Ongen's health. Now the police are still carrying out intensive investigation into two suspects in the case, former Garuda Indonesia's Managing Director Indra Setiawan and Garuda Pilot Chief Secretary Rohainil Aini. Both were arrested at Polri's Criminal Research Agency HQ.

In early May, the police extended the arrest terms of Indra and Rohainil after exceeding 20 days limit. The extension was because the police still needed statements from them.

According to Polri HQ spokesperson, Ins. Gen. Sisno Adiwinoto, from the result of investigation into the two suspects, the police have found many developments.
