Graft fugitive skips one more hearing, is likely in KL


For the third time, graft fugitive Djoko Soegiarto Tjandra has failed to attend a hearing of a case review he filed against his conviction in a high-profile corruption case and has requested for the hearing to be held virtually, as he is reportedly residing in Kuala Lumpur.

His attorney Andi Putra Kusuma read out a letter signed by Djoko in Kuala Lumpur on July 17, which cited health issues as the reason for his absence.
