JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the appeal to the Supreme Court against Gazalba Saleh was filed because the acquittal handed down by the Bandung Corruption Court Judge was considered wrong.

Evidence of the involvement of the Supreme Court Judge in the bribery case handling the case has been pocketed since the investigation.

"We have confidence that the panel of judges at the Bandung District Court made a mistake or made a mistake in the application of the law related to the decision with the defendant Gazalba Saleh," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Thursday, August 10.

Ali said the cassation memory was being compiled. Prosecutors have two weeks to complete it.

The cassation memory was prepared based on a copy of the decision that had been received by the KPK. "Immediately we will submit it within the next 14 days," he said.

As previously reported, Gazalba was acquitted in the trial of alleged bribery in handling the case at the Supreme Court (MA). The KPK is considered insufficient evidence.

In this case, Gazalba was sentenced to 11 years in prison by the Public Prosecutor (JPU). He is suspected of having received a bribe of 20 thousand Singapore dollars for case management at the Supreme Court.

KPK prosecutor Wawan Yunarwanto said the charges were submitted based on the conclusions of the facts of the trial, ranging from witness statements, evidence of clues, to evidence presented.

"So that the panel of judges decide, declare the defendant Gazalba Saleh proven legally and convincingly guilty. Sentencing him a sentence of 11 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 1 billion, subsidiary to 6 months in prison," said Wawan at the Bandung Corruption Court, Thursday, July 13.

The prosecutor explained that Gazalba was suspected of accepting bribes to grant the petitioner's request, Heryanto Tanaka, to grant the cassation case related to the Intidana Savings and Loans Cooperative (KSP) case.

According to the prosecutor, the bribes prepared by Heryanto Tanaka to take care of the case reached 110 thousand Singapore dollars. Then the money was channeled by a chain, ranging from lawyers, ASN in the MA environment, to Prasetio Nugroho as the substitute clerk or assistant representing Gazalba Saleh.
