Indonesia's KPK suspects Aizzudin Abdurrahman, head of PBNU's Economy and Environment Division, of linking hajj organizers to corrupt quota deals in the ongoing 2023-2024 Hajj scandal, claiming evidence of fund flows despite his denials.
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to re-examine former Minister of Religious Affairs Yaqut Cholil Qoumas this week as a witness in the alleged Hajj quota corruption case. His testimony is considered crucial for uncovering the matter at the Ministry of Religious Affairs. The summons letter was sent last week.
