JAKARTA - The Director General of Plantation at the Ministry of Agriculture (Kementan), Andi Nur Alamsyah, said that Panji Harjanto, who was Syahrul Yasin Limpo's aide or SYL, had been 'pailed' for Rp. 50 million.
"At the time of one event, Panji also asked for 50 million for the purchase of iPhone 13 or 14 like that," Andi said during a trial at the Corruption Court at the Corruption Court at the Central Jakarta District Court, Monday, March 20.
The request was mentioned when Andi only served as Director General of Plantation. However, the request cannot be fulfilled because it is not in accordance with the applicable provisions. Moreover, there have been many requests that continue to come to the Directorate General of Plantation.
"We do not fulfill it," he said.
Nevertheless, Andi also admitted that several requests were met. Loyalty to the leadership is one of the reasons.
"We are certainly loyal to the leadership, we finally fulfill it and in several Directorate Generals it also happens like that," said Andi.
Syahrul Yasin Limpo is suspected of extorting his employees of up to Rp44.5 billion during the 2020-2023 period with the Secretary General of the Ministry of Agriculture Kasdi Subagyono and the Director of Agricultural Equipment and Machinery of the Directorate General of Infrastructure and Facilities of the Ministry of Agriculture Muhammad Hatta.
This money was then used for the benefit of Syahrul's wife and family, invited gifts, the NasDem Party, religious events, aircraft charters to Umrah and sacrifices. In addition, he was also charged with receiving gratuities of Rp40.6 billion from January 2020 to October 2023.
