The West Pasaman District Attorney's Office, West Sumatra will make an appeal against the decision of the Panel of Judges at the Corruption Crime District Court in Padang which acquitted three defendants of the former Director of the local Regional General Hospital (RSUD).
"At the trial of reading the verdict of the corruption case for the construction of the West Pasaman Hospital for the 2018-2020 fiscal year on Wednesday (23/8) night, three former directors of the initials HW, BS, and Y were released. For this reason, we will make an appeal to the Supreme Court," said the Head of the West Pasaman District Attorney's Office, Muhammas Yusuf Putra, quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, August 24.
According to him, the verdict of the acquittal was not in accordance with the demands given by the previous Public Prosecutor (JPU) against the three people who also served as Commitment Making Officers (PPK) of the project.
The prosecutor's previous demands for the three people were 5 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 500 million.
"We will immediately prepare a memorandum of cassation for the three PPKs," he said.
In addition to filing an appeal against the three PPK or the former Director of the RSUD, the prosecutor's office will also appeal the verdict against five sub-contractors for the construction of the RSUD.
The verdict against the five people is JP with a 1 year prison sentence and a fine of Rp. 75 million and a subsidiary of 4 months in prison.
Defendant YDM with a prison sentence of 1 year, a fine of Rp. 50 million, subsidiary to 3 months in prison, defendants AJG, BG and MAP with a verdict of 1 year, a fine of Rp. 75 million and a subsidiary of 4 months in prison.
"The judge's decision is far from the demands given, namely 5 years each and a fine of Rp. 500 million," he said.
Previously, the prosecutor's office had detained 17 people involved in the case.
The case began when the West Pasaman Regency Government budgeted for the construction of the West Pasaman Hospital from special allocation funds and general allocation funds with a budget ceiling of Rp. 136,119,063,000.
In the budget plan, a deliberate error occurred in the recapitulation of approximately Rp5,962,588,749.
Then in the auction process there was an auction arrangement by the working group team (Pokja) with other suspects with a multi-year contract of IDR 134,859,961,000 in 2018-2020.
Then the Director of PT MAM Energindo AA (suspect) transferred all work (subcon) with the knowledge of the PPK who was also the director of the RSUD at that time to other parties from Manado.
In implementation, there was a shortage of work volume which resulted in state losses of Rp. 16,239,364,605,46.
