TANJUNG SELOR Two defendants in the corruption case of Perusda Berdikari, Bulungan, North Kalimantan (Kaltara), Anwar Joko Prasetyo (AJP) and Sufirmanto (Su), were found guilty by the Panel of Judges at the Corruption Court (Tipikor) Samarinda, East Kalimantan (Kaltim).
The Public Prosecutor of the Bulungan District Attorney's Office (JPU Kejari), Rahmatullah Aryadi, revealed that the panel of judges sentenced Anwar Joko Prasetyo to 1 year in prison and a fine of Rp. 50 million, subsidiary to 1 month in prison. Meanwhile, Sufirmanto was sentenced to 2 years and 4 months in prison and a fine of Rp. 200 million, subsidiary to two months in prison.
"This version is lighter than the prosecutor's demands, namely the 2-year prison sentence against Anwar Joko Prasetyo. Sufirmanto was sentenced to 3 years and 6 months in prison," he said, Friday, May 17.
"Against Anwar Joko Prasetyo's verdict, we (JPU) filed an appeal because it was below 2 per 3 of the prosecutor's demands," he continued.
Aryadi emphasized that the two defendants were proven to have committed criminal acts of corruption or acts with the aim of enriching themselves or others so that Perusda suffered losses of around Rp. 970,249,000 and Rp. 149,020,000.
"The two defendants abused the authority of the opportunity or facilities they had in them because of their position or position. The defendant bought goods or building materials even though it was known that the act was not his duty and responsibility. Both of them received payment from customer receivables but did not deposit them into the cash of the Berdikari Perusda," he said.
The defendant spent company money without a permit from the Director of Perusda Berdikari which caused state finances or the state economy of Rp. 1,119,269,000. This is reinforced from the report on the results of the audit of the calculation of state financial losses on suspicion of corruption in Perusda Berdikari 2020-2021 conducted by the defendant.
"The results of the audit of state losses reached Rp 1,119,269,000," he said.
Meanwhile, the Regent of Bulungan, Syarwani admitted that he had fully handed over the handling of the case to the prosecutor's office.
"Yes, I will leave it entirely to the prosecutor's office," he said.
Syarwani requested that parties related to this case return the losses incurred in this case.
Moreover, this case concerns debt problems. Therefore, the settlement is that the return of losses must be done.
"It is a form of responsibility for cases that have occurred. This case can be a lesson for all of us in maintaining integrity and credibility," he concluded.
