JAKARTA - The defendant in the case of alleged gratification of the Supreme Court (MA) fatwa, Joko Tjandra, emphasized that he had never sought or asked for help from Prosecutor Pinangki Sirna Malasari. However, it was Pinangki who took the initiative to meet him in Kuala Lumpur and offered to help.
"It was not me who was looking for Pinangki Sirna Malasari to ask for her help in solving my legal problems," said Joko Tjandra during a trial at the Corruption Court, Jakarta, Monday, March 15.
"Pinangki, through Rahmat, who had the initiative to come to meet me in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, offered to help and promised me to solve my legal problems," continued Joko Tjandra.
According to Joko, Pinangki offered to help solve legal problems through the Supreme Court fatwa. This was done so that Joko Tjandra would not be executed when he returned to Indonesia.
In addition, Pinangki also brought or pointed out Anita Kolopaking and Andi Irfan Jaya. They will take care of all the problems on the Constitutional Court Decision No: 33 of 2016 with the aim to Judicial Review Decision No: 12 of 2009.
"The three of them will take care of the Fatwa of the Supreme Court as promised by Pinangki Sirna Malasari," he said.
However, Joko Tjandra said that in the process of obtaining the fatwa he had canceled the agreement. This is because the agreement included in the action plan is considered fraud.
"I firmly told the three of them that I did not want to make an agreement or appointment with Pinangki Sirna Malasari because she is a prosecutor," said Joko Tjandra.
"I reject and cancel the Action Plan proposed by Brother Andi Irfan Jaya because the action plan is nothing more than a mode of fraud and robbery of my assets. Then, the action plan seems very absurd," he continued.

This lawsuit was filed in the bribery case that charged him with dealing with the fatwa of the Supreme Court through the Attorney General's Office.
In this case, Joko Tjandra has given money amounting to 500 thousand United States (US) dollars to prosecutor Pinangki Sirna Malasari through his brother-in-law, Herriyadi Angga Kusuma, and Andi Irfan Jaya.
The money was given as a down payment for plans to administer the law he was facing in the form of an MA fatwa through the Attorney General's Office.
