"We invite the public prosecutor to bring back Made Sudarmaya as a witness on the agenda for the next trial," said Somanasa in a trial at the corruption trial of BPR's fictitious credit. Batukliang Branch with the defendants Agus Fanahesa and Johari at the Mataram Corruption Crime District Court (Tipikor), Thursday 22 September.
Somanasa asked to emphasize to the public prosecutor to present witness Made Sudarmaya with witness Moch. Bagus Arianto, a member of the National Police who gave testimony in today's trial.
"Ask to present together the two witnesses so that their statements can be confronted," he said.
The judge's order to the public prosecutor was a response from Hartono's request, the defendant Johari's legal adviser who acted as "Account Officer" at the Batukliang Branch BPR.
To the judge, Hartono previously outlined the reasons for the request for the confrontation regarding the emergence of the name of witness Bagus Arianto in the credit application list, reported by Antara.
Bagus Arianto's name is listed as one of the representatives of credit applications for 32 of the 199 members of the National Police.
The total disbursement of loans under the name Bagus Arianto was recorded in the 2014-2016 period. The loan value disbursed was IDR 495 million with a range of IDR 15 million to IDR 30 million per person.
During the trial, Bagus Arianto admitted that he did not know that there was a name for him as the person representing the credit application for the 32 members of the National Police.
"I just know that there is an NTB Police MoU with BPR. I know it's from friends to friends," said Bagus, who claimed to have been Sudarmaya's subordinate while on duty at the Directorate of Sabhara Polda NTB.
Bagus also admitted that the loan process at the BPR was not difficult because it had been assisted by Sudarmaya, who was then an Administrative Officer for Financial Affairs at the Directorate of Sabhara Polda NTB.
"He said it was smooth, there was convenience, that's why I once submitted (loan) through Sudarmaya. So, the disbursement went directly to Sudarmaya's house," he said.
Bagus Arianto said that while applying for credit through Sudarmaya, he had never signed a credit agreement with the BPR.
"What conditions, I forgot. But at that time, I only got receipts from the BPR. Regarding that (credit agreement), there was none," he said.
Bagus Arianto's statement is different from Sudarmaya, who admitted in the previous trial agenda that he was not alone in applying for credit for 199 members of the National Police. To the judge, Sudarmaya admitted that five people were involved, one of whom was Bagus Arianto.
Regarding the difference in information, Johari's legal adviser asked for a confrontation with information between Sudarmaya and Bagus Arianto.
Before the judge gave an order to the public prosecutor to present the two witnesses, Bratha Hariputra, the public prosecutor responded by asking that the trial continue with the agenda of other witnesses.
The public prosecutor reasoned that witness Sudarmaya was clear enough to provide information on the agenda of the previous trial.
The prosecutor also considered the efficiency of the trial time, which there were still many agendas of other witnesses, to provide information before the panel of judges.
In this case, Johari became a defendant along with Agus Fanahesa who served as Head of Marketing for BPR Batukliang Branch.
Both were charged with involvement in the emergence of fictitious loans of 199 members of the National Police, causing a loss of Rp. 2.38 billion. The loss arose during the 2014-2017 credit disbursement period.
