JAKARTA - Minister of Youth and Sports (Menpora) Dito Ariotedjo emphasized that he did not accept any gifts from the President Director of PT Mora Telematika Indonesia Galumbang Menak Simanjuntak, who is now a defendant in the alleged corruption case of BTS 4G Kominfo.
The rebuttal began with Chief Judge Fahzal Hendri digging up the relationship between witness Dito and Galumbang Menak. At that time, it was discovered that the two had met twice.
Dito then mentioned that the meeting with Galumbang was limited to business issues. This is because the figure of the President Director of PT Mora Telematika Indonesia is a senior businessman.
Hearing this testimony, Judge Fahzal began to question the progress of the trial which stated that there had been two givings from the defendant Galumbang.
"At the first meeting, was there a difference in entrusting something with you?" asked Judge Fahzal during a trial at the Corruption Court at the Central Jakarta District Court, Wednesday, October 11.
"Nothing," replied Dito.
"Nothing?" asked Judge Fahzal convincingly.
"No sir," said the Menpora.
Then, Judge Fahzal asked a similar question about the second meeting between Dito and Galumbang. The man who now serves as Menpora reiterated that there was no gift whatsoever.
"The second meeting is the same?" asked Judge Fahzal.
"It's the same, Your Majesty," said Dito.
Judge Fahzal explained the reasons behind his question. In the trial process, information emerged when there was a flow of funds to Dito Ariotedjo from Galumbang Menak through Resi which intended to secure the 4G BTS case.
"The problem that developed in the trial, Mr. Dito, you once discussed the problem of someone trying to close the BTS case," said Judge Fahzal.
