JAKARTA - The Public Prosecutor (JPU) at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has demanded Blueray Cargo boss, John Field, a three-year prison sentence. The demand was made because he was found guilty of allegedly giving bribes to a number of officials at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise regarding the import of goods.
The demand was read by the prosecutor at the Jakarta Corruption Court today, June 22. In addition to the criminal sentence, John Field is also required to pay a fine.
"To impose a sentence on the defendant 1 John Field with a prison sentence of 3 years and a fine of Rp. 300,000,000, which is a substitute for a prison sentence for 100 days," said the KPK prosecutor, Muhammad Takdir Suhan, Monday, June 22.
Meanwhile, two other Blueray Cargo executives, namely Dedi Kurniawan Sukolo and Andri, were sentenced to two years and six months. "As well as a fine of Rp. 200 million each, a substitute for 80 days in prison," said Takdir.
The prosecutor said that the three defendants were proven to be legally and convincingly guilty of committing corruption as in the first indictment, violating Article 605 Paragraph (1) letter a of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code and other provisions.
The aggravating thing is that the three of them do not support the government's program in realizing a government that is free from corruption, collusion, and nepotism.
"The actions of the defendants have damaged the image of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia," said Takdir.
Meanwhile, what is mitigating is that the three defendants were polite in the trial and were never convicted.
As previously reported, the name of the Director General (Dirjen) of Customs and Excise, Djaka Budi Utama, appeared in the letter of indictment for the alleged bribery of import management at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC) which ensnared the owner of Blueray Cargo, John Field.
Djaka was mentioned in a series of meetings between DJBC officials and cargo entrepreneurs before the alleged conditioning of the import route occurred. This was done secretly at the Borobudur Hotel, Central Jakarta, around July 2025.
"A meeting was held between officials at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise, including Djaka Budi Utama, Rizal, Sisprian Subiaksono and Orlando Hamonangan Sianipar with cargo entrepreneurs," read the KPK prosecutor's indictment letter.
Still in the indictment, from July 2025 to January 2026, John Field together with Dedy and Andri is said to have given a total of Rp61,301,939,000 in the form of Singapore dollars to DJBC officials. Then there are also entertainment facilities and luxury goods worth Rp1,845,000,000 given to a number of officials.
Rizal as the former Director of Enforcement and Investigation of DJBC was said to have received Rp2 billion almost every time he handed over money. Then, the Head of the Intelligence Subdirectorate of DJBC Enforcement and Investigation, Sisprian Subiaksono, received Rp1 billion.
Meanwhile, the Head of the DJBC Intelligence Section, Orlando Hamonangan, received another Rp450 million to Rp600 million. The details, in the form of entertainment facilities worth Rp1.45 billion and a Tag Heuer watch worth Rp65 million.
Then, there was also a receipt made by Enov Puji Wijanarko who was said to have received one unit of the Mazda CX-5 car worth Rp330 million.
For their actions, John Field along with Dedy and Andri were charged with violating Article 605 paragraph (1) letter a of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article VII paragraph 48 of Law Number 1 of 2026 concerning Criminal Adjustment. They were also charged with alternative charges under Article 606 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code in conjunction with the rules on criminal adjustment and the inclusion of corporate crimes.
