KUPANG - The High Prosecutor's Office of East Nusa Tenggara Province (Kejati NTT) sent investigators to carry out the execution of Ramlan (59), a convict of a corruption case in the dock construction project in Alor, Alor Regency which cost Rp 20 billion with a state loss of Rp 4.3 billion. Ramlan was arrested by the Aceh High Court, Wednesday (16/3).
"The NTT Prosecutor's Office has sent an executing prosecutor to Aceh to carry out the execution of prison terms for convicts who have been fugitives for six years," said Head of the Legal Information and Public Relations Section of the NTT Prosecutor's Office, Abdul Hakim, in Kupang as reported by Antara, Thursday, March 17.
According to Abdul Hakim, the convict Ramlan was declared a fugitive before the Alor District Attorney received a decision from the Supreme Court which had sentenced the convict to six years in prison.
Ramlan was proven guilty of corruption amounting to Rp. 4.3 billion in a dock construction project in Alor Regency in 2014 worth Rp. 20.5 billion which was sourced from the DIPA of the Special Regional Development Working Unit of the Ministry of Development of Disadvantaged Regions in the 2014 budget year.
According to Abdul Hakim, Ramlan (59), Director Mina Fajar Abadi was originally sentenced to 1.5 years in prison by the Kupang Corruption Court, but on appeal at the Kupang High Court again sentenced the convict to two years in prison.
"The Public Prosecutor of the Alor State Prosecutor's Office appealed and the Supreme Court's decision was sentenced to six years in prison, when he was about to be executed the convict disappeared because his prison term was over, so he was included in the list of people wanted by the NTT Prosecutor's Office," said Abdul Hakim.
He said the executing prosecutor from the NTT Prosecutor's Office had dispatched to Aceh to carry out the execution of the Supreme Court's decision on Ramlan to serve a six-year prison sentence.
"The convict is serving a prison sentence in Aceh, so the execution process is carried out in Aceh," said Abdul Hakim.
