Cirus is unable to come to police HQ: Attorney

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Thu, 01/06/2011 10:22 AM | National

Prosecutor Cirus Sinaga will not come to the National Police headquarters today for questioning because he is in ill health, his attorney says.

“He is in Medan. He is sick so he cannot come,” Cirus' attonerney, Tumbur Simanjuntak, said Thursday as quoted by kompas.com.

Tumbur added that he would send a request to the police to postpone the questioning session until next week.

Cirus has been implicated in a tax graft case of involving former tax officer Gayus H. Tambunan. Cirus allegedly falsified Gayus’ dossier after receiving a US$ 50,000 bribe from Gayus.

Gayus previously testified that the bribe was payment for reducing his sentence during his trial at Tangerang District Court.
