JAKARTA - The Public Prosecutor (JPU) will read out the charges against three inactive judges of the Surabaya District Court who are defendants in the alleged bribery case of Gregorius Ronald Tannur's acquittal, today, Tuesday, April 22.
The three inactive judges with the status of defendants were Erintuah Damanik, Mangapul, and Heru Hanindyo.
"For the public prosecutor next Tuesday, April 22, the demands are ready (to be read out)," said Chief Justice Teguh Santoso during the trial Tuesday, April 15.
In fact, the trial for reading the verdict was held on April 15. However, the team of prosecutors has not completed the preparation of the lawsuit file. They asked for a week to complete it.
In fact, if the lawsuit file is still not completed today, the judge still asks the prosecutor to read it. This is because the trial could no longer be postponed due to the limited time of detention of the defendant.
"The detention period is only one month left, after we had a deliberation, we rescheduled it. However, like it or not, ready or not, everything must be ready, including me," said Judge Teguh.
Meanwhile, the three defendants were charged with accepting bribes in the form of gifts or promises of Rp4.67 billion and gratuities in the case of alleged bribery and gratuities for giving acquittal to the convicted murder of Ronald Tannur in 2024.
In addition to bribes, the three were also charged with receiving gratuities in the form of rupiah and various foreign currencies, namely Singapore dollars, Malaysian ringgit, Japanese yen, euro, and Saudi riyals.
