JAKARTA - The defendant in the case of alleged gratification in the Mahkahmah Agung (MA) fatwa administration, Joko Tjandra, denied all of Andi Irfan Jaya's testimonies. Joko Tjandra said Andi Irfan Jaya knew all the discussions regarding the action plan and the power of attorney to sell.

This was conveyed by Joko Tjandra when the panel of judges gave him the opportunity to respond to the testimony of Andi Irfan Jaya.

Firmly, Joko Tjandra mentioned Andi Irfan Jaya who knew about the action plan. The reason was that Andi Irfan Jaya listened to all the conversations that were said by Pinangki and Anita Kolopaking when they came to his office in Malyasia.

This statement certainly contradicts all of Andi Irfan Jaya's testimonies, who said he did not know the action plan and the power of attorney to sell.

"I don't remember that you could come out of my room (space) without my hands. You sit there looking around the building and not coming out, and the talk is about how legal efforts were made, namely to commit fatwas," said Joko. Tjandra during a trial at the Corruption Court, Central Jakarta, Kamsi, 17 December.

Thus, said Joko, it does not make sense if this former NasDem Party politician does not know the action plan. Then, said Joko, the first time he met Prosecutor Pinangki Sirna Malasari, Joko said, introducing Andi Irfan as a consultant.

"So when you came to my office on November 25, you were charged by Brother Pinangki as my consultant, in a discussion in my office," he said.

Furthermore, Joko Tjandra also said that the fees paid to Andi Irfan as a consultant were worth 600 thousand United States (US) dollars. In fact, this has been discussed twice during a meeting at Joko Tjandra's office and at a hotel dinner.

"We agree that a total lawyer fee of 1 million US dollars, 600 thousand US dollars for relatives, while 400 thousand US dollars for ADK (Anita Dewi Kolopaling)," he said.

"After that we agreed to pay 50 percent of the attorney's fees. So that at the end of the discussion at my office it was confirmed again at dinner time. That 50 percent would be paid from the cost of 1 million to 500 thousand," continued Joko Tjandra.

Hearing Joko Tjandra's statement, the judge asked Andi Irfan Jaya about his testimony which contradicted his testimony. With confidence, Andi Irfan sticks to the testimony given.

"I remain on the information," said Andi Irfan Jaya.
