JAKARTA - Anindra Ardiansyah Bakrie or commonly known as Ardi Bakrie, is the son of the conglomerate Aburizal Bakrie. Ardi is widely known as a professional with a myriad of managerial skills in leading the company. This talent was inherited from his grandfather and founder of the Bakrie Group business empire, namely Achmad Bakrie.
Based on information gathered by the editors, Ardi is the president commissioner of the television station tvOne and also the President Director of Badak Lampung FC replacing Marco Gracia Paulo who moved to become the President Director of PSS Sleman.
But unfortunately, bad news is now approaching Ardi Bakrie. The 42-year-old man was suspected of being involved in narcotics abuse by the police. In fact, he allegedly involved his wife, Nia Ramadhani, in the unlawful activity.
"I confirm that NR and AB are secured," said the Head of Public Relations of the Metro Jaya Police Kombes Yusri Yunus when confirming the news of the arrest of the youngest son Aburizal Bakrie and his son-in-law as reported by VOI, Thursday, July 8.
It is undeniable that this incident was a major blow to the business entities under the Bakrie Group.
To note, tvOne led by Ardi is not the only media company affiliated with the Bakrie Group. This conglomerate has a large media network in the country under the name VIVA which oversees Antv, Suaramerdeka.com, and also a mixed martial arts (MMA) channel with the trademark One Pride.
