JAKARTA - The defendant Harvey Moeis plans to file an appeal to the Supreme Court or the Supreme Court regarding the alleged tin corruption case which caused state losses of Rp. 300 trillion.

The legal action was taken after the Jakarta High Court (PT) decided to increase the sentence for Harvey Moeis to 20 years.

"The legal cassation effort is certain. We will definitely submit it," said Harvey Moeis' team of attorneys, Andi Ahmad, to reporters, Monday, February 17.

One of the reasons Harvey Moeis' camp will file an appeal is that the PT Jakarta verdict is very heavy. Moreover, it is far from the verdict in the first instance of the court which imposed a 6.5-year-old sanction for the husband of Sandra Dewi.

"We think this decision is also much higher than what was decided at the beginning, and we are confident that our client should not be guilty at all of the charges that have been prosecuted by the prosecutor," he said.

Currently, said Andi, his party is still waiting for a copy of the PT Jakarta decision. If it has been received, then it will be studied regarding the considerations of the panel of judges behind the decision.

"So we want to see again what the fielding is like, we will review what the considerations are, what is certain is that our legal action will take and that is, we just have to look at it," said Andi.

The Jakarta High Court (PT) has increased the sentence of defendant Harvey Moeis, who is the extension of PT Refined Bangka Tin (RBT), to 20 years in prison in connection with the corruption case in the management of tin commodity trading in the mining business permit (IUP) area of PT Timah Tbk in 2015-2022.

In addition to corporal punishment, the Panel of Judges of PT DKI Jakarta also sentenced Harvey to pay a fine of Rp. 1 billion, a subsidiary of 8 months in prison, and was sentenced to pay compensation of Rp. 420 billion.
