JAKARTA: The bitter feud between former president Joko “Jokowi” Widodo and the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) has spilled over into the legal sphere, after the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) named the party’s secretary-general a suspect in a bribery case and banned another senior politician from leaving the country.

The KPK named on Monday (Dec 23) secretary-general Hasto Kristiyanto a suspect for allegedly aiding former party member Harun Masiku in a bribery case and obstructing justice by helping him flee.
