Patrialis Akbar, Constitutional Court Judge: This is a though Test

After he was questioned for 15 hours, Patrialis Akbar, a judge of the Constitutional Court, did not immediately return to his cell at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) detention facility. It was already 1:00am on Friday, last week. Wearing a vest given to detainees, Patrialis sat ruminating for some time, on the porch of the detention facility. He occasionally spoke to KPK officers escorting him from the interrogation room to his cell.

"This is a very tough test," said Patrialis, a justice and human rights minister during the presidency of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. Linda Trianita from Tempo had a chance to ask Patrialis a few questions.
