The public prosecutor demanded that the judge impose a criminal sentence on the former Head of the Bima Regency Agriculture, Food Crops and Horticulture (PTPH) Office, West Nusa Tenggara M. Tayeb for 9.5 years in prison related to corruption cases in the distribution program for production facilities (saprodies) and new rice fields printing for the 2016 fiscal year.
"Demanding that the panel of judges impose a prison sentence on defendant M. Tayeb with 9 years and 6 months in prison," said Andang Setyo Nugroho representing the team of public prosecutors in reading out M. Tayeb's demands before the Mataram Corruption Court Judge, reported by ANTARA, Monday, May 22.
In addition to the criminal sentence, the prosecutor asked the judge to impose a fine of Rp. 500 million, subsidiary to 6 months in prison.
The prosecutor conveyed such a claim by stating that M. Tayeb's actions in this case were proven to have violated Article 2 paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 18 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law no. 20 of 2001 jo. Article 55 paragraph (1) 1st of the Criminal Code.
Regarding the existence of article 18, the prosecutor also demanded that the judge charge the defendant to pay compensation for state losses that appeared in the case with a value of Rp.877 million.
"If the defendant's assets cannot cover the state's losses, then the defendant must replace them by serving four years in prison," he said.
Andang explained that the prosecutor gave such demands by stating that M. Tayeb during the trial process often provided complicated information.
"Another thing that is burdensome is that the defendant does not support the government in eradicating corruption," he said.
In this case, the prosecutor also read out the demands for two other defendants, namely the former Head of Land Development Rehabilitation and Plant Protection Division of the Bima Muhamad Regency PTPH and the Head of Section (Kasi) Rehabilitation and Land Development (RPL) of the inactive Bima Regency PTPH Nur Mayangsari.

To the two defendants, the prosecutor also asked the judge to charge compensation for state losses of Rp877 million, a subsidiary of 4 years and 9 months in prison.
The role of the two defendants in this case was also stated that the prosecutor had been proven to have violated Article 2 paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 18 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law no. 20 of 2001 jo. Article 55 paragraph (1) 1st of the Criminal Code.
In this case, the prosecutor explained that the budget for this distribution program was Rp. 14.4 billion from the Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture. This program is distributed with the aim of increasing food production in Bima Regency.
It was recorded that 241 farmer groups (poktan) in Bima Regency were included in the list of beneficiaries with details of Rp8.9 billion for 158 poktan that manage 4,447 hectares of rice fields and Rp5.5 billion for 83 poktans with a rice area of 2,780 hectares.
The distribution of the budget is carried out directly to the banking accounts of each group. The disbursement process is carried out in two stages. The first stage is IDR 10.3 billion, 70 percent of the total budget is IDR 14.4 billion, and 30 percent is in the second stage with a value of IDR 4.1 billion.
Ketika anggaran tersebut telah masuk ke rekening pribadi poktan, M. Tayeb sebagai pejabat pembuat komitmen mengeluarkan perintah untuk melakukan penarikan kaca kepada poktan. Uang tersebut diminta untuk dikumpulkan kembali di Dinas PTPH Kabupaten Bima.
However, the budget collection, which should have been managed independently by each group, was withdrawn on the orders of the defendant M. Tayeb. The withdrawal was not proven by the submission note.
After the money was collected from the poktan, on the orders of M. Tayeb, Muhamad and Nur Mayangsari made a payment to CV Mitra Agro Santosa, which is located in Jombang, East Java.
The appointment of CV Mitra Agro Santosa as a provider of saprodi is also under the orders of M. Tayeb. The items purchased from the company include rice seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides.
In addition, there are several items of goods that CV Mitra Agro Santosa cannot provide, but are purchased from local provider companies.
Nur Mayangsari as Muhamad's subordinate also received an order to make two memorandums of saprodi orders for CV Mitra Agro Santosa with details of the first note amounting to Rp8.9 billion and for the second order Rp1.7 billion.
The prosecutor also considered that the saprodi order was not in accordance with the area of the poktan rice fields registered in the implementation instructions. So that there is a shortage that now appears as a value of state losses of Rp. 5.1 billion.
