JAKARTA - Rully Anggi Akbar, the husband of Boiyen, through his lawyer, provided a quite surprising rebuttal regarding the allegations of embezzlement of investment funds. They claim that the money was not embezzled, but was used to pay Rully's debts to other parties.
Ben Zebua, Rully's lawyer, clearly explained the flow of the use of investment funds that are now in question.
"The investment that was allegedly embezzled by our client, in fact, that investment was used to pay Rully's debts to other parties," he said in Central Jakarta, Wednesday, January 28.
The amount of debt paid using the funds is not small. "It is worth approximately 2.5 billion," he continued.
Whereas previously Rully was accused of embezzling funds for personal gain, now his legal team is trying to build an argument that the funds were used to cover other obligations.
Rully himself seemed very confident in facing the existing police report. They claimed to have strong evidence to refute all accusations.
"We have strong evidence, yes, to refute or deny the report that has been alleged against our client," said Ben Zebua.
They also challenged the reporting party to be able to prove the allegations.
"Whoever alleges, that is what proves... let the reporter prove it," he said.
