The case of LCC assets has previously advanced to the court table based on the results of the investigation by the NTB Prosecutor's Office. In this case, there were two officials from the West Lombok Regional Public Company, namely PT Patuh Patju (Tripat) who were dragged into the crime.
Both are former Director of PT Tripat Lalu Azril Sopandi and former Finance Manager of PT Tripat Abdurrazak.
Based on the criminal verdict handed down, both were found guilty of committing corruption together, causing state losses.
In consideration of the verdict, the Panel of Judges at the Mataram District Court outlined the process of capital participation and replacement of the building that was built in 2014.
When Azril Sopandi still held the position of Director of PT Tripat, the regional company received capital participation from the West Lombok Regional Government in the form of strategic land on Jalan Raya Mataram-Sikur, Gerimak Village, Narmada District covering an area of 8.4 hectares.
The land then became PT Tripat's capital to build cooperation in LCC management, in this case private parties from PTbaniss, a subsidiary of Lippo Group.
4.8 hectares of land from a total of 8.4 hectares, then used as collateral by PTbaniss to PT Bank Sinarmas. From this collateral, PTbanis in 2013 received a loan of Rp264 billion.
The repayment of credit from capital loans with collateral assets belonging to the West Lombok Regency Government is reported to have no deadline for PT Bank Sinarmas.
Dalam proses perjanjian kerja sama antara PT Tripat dengan PTbanis, muncul keterlibatan mantan Bupati Lombok Barat Zaini Arony, yang turut serta membuatkan tandasan perjanjian.
