JAKARTA. Indonesian photographer Agan Harahap said the circulating pictures of Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) chairman Abraham Samad with a woman, thought to be Miss Indonesia 2014 Elvira Devinamira Wirayanti, were “80 percent” real. The uncompromising pictures making rounds on social media were dismissed by Abraham as potentially engineered and a potential ploy to defame him a day after the KPK declared high-ranking police general and potential National Police chief Comr. Gen. Budi Gunawan as a graft suspect on Tuesday. However, Agan Harahap, who is also a Photoshop expert, comments that the photographs may be “80 percent” authentic due to the low resolution of the images, as if they were taken by mobile phone or webcam, which he says would make smooth editing more difficult.
