A Bribe For The Unila Chancellor Was Charged With Giving Bribe Of IDR 250 Million In Order To Smooth Out 2 Student Candidates
JAKARTA - Andi Desfiandi's private party was charged with bribing the Chancellor of Lampung University (Unila) Karomani up to Rp250 million. The indictment was read out at the Corruption Court at the Tanjungkarang District Court today, Wednesday, November 9.
"Giving Rp250 million to civil servants or state officials, namely Karomani," said the KPK Public Prosecutor (JPU) when reading Andi's indictment.
The prosecutor said that the money was given so that Karomani as the rector would accept two people as students through independent channels. "Including Zalfa Aditia Putra and Zaki Algifari as new students for the 2022 school year at the Faculty of Medicine," the indictment stated.
Zalda is the son oflies Yulianti. Meanwhile, Zaki is a entrusted student from Ary Meizari Alfian. Both were declared students on July 18, 2022.
Andi's communication with Karomani occurred via WhatsApp message. Both names can pass because they are included in the system by Helmy Fitriawan at the request of the Unial Chancellor.
In the indictment revealed, Karomani asked Andi and Ary to come to his house to hand over the promised money. Initially, he asked to buy home furniture for Rp150 million to Rp200 million to fill the Lampung Nahdliyin Center Building.
After that, Andi and Ary were asked to continue their communication with Karomani's confidant, Mualimin. Communications related to the delivery of the remaining bribes promised.
However, the purchase of furniture failed due to the tight inauguration of the building that was built by Karomani. So, Andi asked Ary to hand over the promised cash.
"Then the defendant (Andi) prepared Rp250,000,000 which was wrapped in white plastic to be handed over to Karomani through Mualimin," said the prosecutor.
For his actions, Andi was charged with violating Article 5 paragraph (1) letter a of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 Paragraph (1) of the 1st Criminal Code.
