Noegroho Djajoesman:
Raden would come and go as he pleased

Police Comr. Gen. (ret.) Noegroho Djajoesman, 68, owns a law consulting firm, so the former police chief of metropolitan Jakarta provided a lawyer from his office to represent Raden Nuh, who is being charged with extortion. Noegroho often converses with Raden, although he claims to know nothing about the Twitter or the Trimacan2000 and TM2000Back online accounts. Last week, Tempo met with Noegroho in his South Jakarta home, accompanied by Endi Martono, the lawyer appointed to represent Raden.

Your name was often mentioned by Raden Nuh. Do you know him well?

I was introduced to him by a journalist, back in mid 2012, after Jokowi became governor. He came and we conversed. I enjoy talking to young people because they're idealistic. (Raden claimed to have known Noegroho long before 2012).
