BANDUNG - Former Mayor of Cimahi Ajay M Priyatna was sentenced to four years in prison and a fine of Rp. 200 million by the Bandung District Court (PN) for bribing KPK investigator Stepanus Robin Pattuju. "Imposing a prison sentence of four years and a fine of Rp. 200 million, a subsidiary of four months in prison," said Chief Justice Eman Sulaeman at Bandung District Court, Bandung City, West Java, Antara, Monday, April 10. The judge said Ajay was legally and convincingly proven guilty in accordance with Article 13 of the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 31 of 1999 as amended in Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 20 of 2001, related to the bribery charges of KPK investigators. In addition, Ajay, said the judge, was proven guilty in accordance with Article 12 B in conjunction with Article 18 of the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 31 of 1999 as amended in Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 20 of 2001, related to the charges of receiving gratuities from heads of agencies and sub-district heads. The judge also gave Ajay additional punishment in the form of revocation of political rights to be elected for two years after completing his sentence. In his consideration, the judge said that Ajay was a burdensome thing, namely the Mayor of Cimahi, who should be an example for the community. In addition, Ajay is also considered not to support the government's program on eradicating corruption. Meanwhile, mitigating factors, according to judge Ajay, were polite during the trial and Ajay also had family responsibilities. The verdict handed down to Ajay was lighter than the demand. Previously, the prosecutor demanded that Ajay be imprisoned for eight years and pay a replacement money of Rp250 million. Previously, Ajay was charged with bribing KPK investigator Stepanus Robin Pattuju in the amount of Rp507 million so as not to involve Ajay during a KPK investigation in the Greater Bandung area related to a case of alleged corruption.
Ajay was also charged with having received gratuities of Rp250 million from a number of heads of offices and sub-district heads. The receipt of the money is also suspected to be related to the need to bribe KPK investigators.
