JAKARTA - Being one of the celebrities with the greatest influence in Indonesia makes Raffi Ahmad not escape from the onslaught of rumors. Most recently, his name was again implicated in a Bluray Cargo corruption case, but Raffi seemed to have an "elephant skin" to face the situation.
When asked about his name being associated with a legal case again, Raffi gave a very relaxed and religious response.
"I'm used to being told what. Yes, it's important if someone is slanderous, let it be a reward for me. Okay?" replied Raffi Ahmad in South Jakarta, Tuesday, June 9.
For the man nicknamed Sultan Andara, being dragged into a skewed issue is not new in his career. He recalls several serious accusations he has experienced in the past but has not been proven.
"Oh yes, it's normal. I've been called a money launderer, this is it," he said.
Even though he feels used to being slandered, Raffi still maintains his integrity in the case that is currently hot. He guarantees that he is not involved in any transaction.
"But for sure, if this is the case, I have never had a transaction and never ordered," said Raffi.
For information, Raffi Ahmad's name surfaced in the trial after the KPK prosecutor confirmed a WhatsApp conversation between Sri Pangestuti alias Tuti, a customs services management entrepreneur (PPJK) with Yohanes who is John Field's personal assistant.
In the conversation read by the prosecutor, Yohanes said that Raffi, who was then in the United States, was said to want to send goods in the form of laptops and iPhones to Indonesia through the Bluray Cargo network.
