A case broker suspect, Sjahril Djohan, claimed Friday he once met with a man claiming to be a delegation of former National Police chief detective Comr. Gen. Susno Duadji, asking him to stay in Singapore.
"Yes, the man reached me, asking me to stay," Sjahril, who is also a former diplomat, told reporters before undergoing a questioning session at National Police headquarters in Jakarta.
When asked if the man was a legislator, Sjahril said he did not know the man.
Sjahril also refused to mention where the meeting took place.
Sjahril's lawyer, Hotma Sitompul, added the man came to Sjahril only a day before he returned to Indonesia on April 13, 2010.
Few hours after Sjahril's meeting with the man, Hotma said, Susno was arrested at the Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International Airport by a number of National Police's internal affairs officers.
Susno was about to leave for Singapore but he has denied the trip was aimed to meet with Sjahril.
Susno said he wanted to make a medical check-up in Singapore.
After Sjahril arrived in Indonesia, he was brought to the National Police headquarters where he underwent questioning.
Sjahril testified before detectives, according to a recently leaked police document, he once handed over Rp 500 million (US$54,000) in cash to Susno at his house.
The money was allegedly a bribe in connection with a case involving an arowana fish farming in Riau when Susno was still the National Police chief detective.
