JAKARTA - Former Special Staff (Stafsus) Edhy Prabowo, Putri Tjatur Budilistyanti is known to earn IDR 31 million per month. His job as staff was sorting files and arranging Edhy Prabowo's schedule.

Putri's tens of millions of salaries were revealed when the public prosecutor (JPU) asked about her duties in the due diligence team. Putri answered only as an executive member.

Putri admitted that she has been focusing on managing the administration at the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries.

"As a staff member for institutional administration, have you contributed your thoughts to the minister with that task?" asked the prosecutor during a trial at the Corruption Court, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, May 18.

"Sir's permission, to be honest, I have not arrived there, because I am still focused on helping the minister sort out the documents," replied Putri.

Hearing that answer, the prosecutor sharpened his question. The prosecutor alluded to the monthly income of Rp. 31 million

"Because I see that your salary is Rp. 31 million, correct? Rp. 31 million, there is health insurance, there is a driver, there is a car, right?" asked the prosecutor.

"Ready," said Putri agreed.

Putri then explained that her job was not just sorting out documents. He also sometimes arranges Edhy Prabowo's agenda.

"Including arranging his (Edhy Prabowo) agenda, sir," he said.

The prosecutor then asked Putri to explain the difference between her duties and the doom. Because both according to the prosecutor are both processing documents.

"Because at that time the position of the private secretary was still vacant. It means that there were no people who were really active in administration. Meanwhile, previously I was in charge of administration for Mr. Edhy when he first (worked) with me in 2004 to 2019," said Putri.
