Facts About Harvey Moeis' Demands In Tin Corruption

YOGYAKARTA - There are facts about Harvey Moeis' demands in tin corruption that are interesting to discuss, because hundreds of billions of rupiah have lost the state and involved a well-known businessman.

The Harvey Moeis case has become one of the largest corruption cases in the mining sector in recent years and has uncovered a number of corrupt practices that have been hidden.

Reporting from Antanews, here are some points in Harvey Moeis' trial:

For his actions in the corruption case in the management of the tin commodity trading system of PT Timah since 2015, Harvey Moeis, who acted as a representative of PT Refined Bangka Tin, was sentenced to 12 years in prison.

In the trial of the prosecution, the Public Prosecutor asked the panel of judges to impose a guilty verdict against Harvey Moeis for corruption and money laundering.

In addition, the Public Prosecutor also believes that the evidence that has been submitted is strong enough to prove the defendant's guilt

In addition to the prison sentence, the Public Prosecutor (JPU) also asked the judge to impose a fine of Rp. 1 billion to Harvey Moeis.

However, if the fine is not paid, Harvey faces an additional penalty in the form of imprisonment for one year.

The public prosecutor charged Harvey Moeis with committing a criminal act of corruption which resulted in state losses.

Harvey's actions were deemed to have violated Article 2 paragraph (1) of the Anti-Corruption Law which regulates corruption in general, as well as Article 18 of the Anti-Corruption Law relating to abuse of authority or position.

In addition, the prosecutor also applied Article 3 of the Anti-Corruption Law which regulates the crime of money laundering, as well as Article 55 paragraph (1) 1 of the Criminal Code which regulates actions together.

The prosecutor assessed that Harvey Moeis' actions had betrayed the public and state trust. His acts of corruption that cost the state up to Rp300 billion and benefited him by Rp210 billion, as well as his complicated attitude in the trial, became the main consideration in the prosecution.

Apart from Harvey Moeis, there were two other defendants in the tin management corruption case who also faced severe criminal charges.

Suparta, as the President Director of PT RBT, was charged with 14 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 1 billion due to his role which was considered the same as Harvey.

Meanwhile, Reza Andriansyah, Director of Business Development of PT RBT, was charged with 8 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 750 million for his involvement in criminal acts of corruption together.

In this case, Harvey Moeis and Helena Lim are suspected of having made a profit of Rp420 billion together. On the other hand, Suparta allegedly received a much larger flow of funds, amounting to Rp4.57 trillion.

However, it is suspected that Reza did not directly accept the flow of funds, but his involvement in knowing and agreeing to the acts of corruption committed by other perpetrators.

The acts of corruption committed by the three defendants have caused enormous state losses.

The details of the loss include losses due to the rental of processing equipment worth Rp2.28 trillion, tin ore payments that cost the state Rp26.65 trillion, and environmental losses that reached a fantastic figure of Rp271.07 trillion.
