11 Times Installments, Former Waskita Karya Officials Finally Repay The Fines And Substitutes Of Up To IDR 3.8 Billion

JAKARTA - The prosecutor for the execution of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) deposited IDR 3.8 billion in the state treasury. This money came from a deposit from the former Division Head of PT Waskita Karya, Fathor Rochman.

Fathor is a convict in a corruption case in the implementation of fictitious subcontractor work on various projects carried out by PT Waskita Karya.

"Execution Prosecutor Andry Prihandono has deposited into the state treasury a fine of IDR 200 million and a replacement money of IDR 3.6 billion from the convict Fathor Rachman", KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs, Ali Fikri, told reporters, Tuesday, March 1.

Ali said the deposit was made based on the Corruption Court's decision at the Central Jakarta District Court with the number: 59/Pid.Sus/TPK/2020/PN.Jkt. Pst. This decision was made on April 26, 2021.

Fathor has completed his obligation to pay the fine and compensation as stated in the verdict. Ali said this payment was made in installments.

"In the process of collecting this obligation, the convict made payments in 11 installments so that the convict's obligation to pay fines and replacement money has been completed as stated in the verdict", he said.

"Previously, the Corruption Eradication Commission's executor prosecutor was active in collecting the obligation to pay fines and replacement money to recover assets from the money that had been enjoyed by the corruption convicts", Ali added.

Previously reported, Fathor was sentenced to 6 years in prison and a fine of IDR 300 million.

The verdict was handed down because he and several parties were proven guilty of corruption which resulted in a loss of state finances of up to IDR 202.296 billion by making 41 fictitious work contracts.
