Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The Attorney Generals Office (AGO) has secretly questioned South Sumatra Governor Alex Noerdin over an alleged graft case related to grants and social assistance.
Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes Arminsyah stated on Thursday that his side had questioned Noerdin on Tuesday (April 26) and had planned to again interrogate him on Friday (April 30).

"Nobody has been named a suspect, and our investigators are still questioning him," he added.(*)
