Three police witnesses were scheduled to testify in connection with Gunawan's alleged involvement in a graft case. While Inspector General Andayono, who is the regional police chief of East Kalimantan, and First Adjunct Inspector Revindo Taufik Gunawan Siahaan gave no reason for failing to meet the KPK's summons, retired Brigadier General Heru Purwanto said he was ill, KPK's Head of News Reporting and Publication, Priharsa Nugraha, said.
