JAKARTA - The Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) has conveyed information to the investigating prosecutors at the Attorney General's Office regarding efforts to remove evidence of communication in the vortex of the alleged bribery case in the processing of a Supreme Court (MA) fatwa.
This case has caught the prosecutor Pinangki Sirna Malasari, Joko Tjandra and former Nasdem politician Andi Irfan Jaya. MAKI coordinator Boyamin Saiman said the information was related to the communication between prosecutor Pinangki Sirna Malasari and the witness with the initials R.
"There are efforts to erase the electronic traces of the witness (R) and those who carry out the suspicion that they are linked to the suspect who became the accused (Pinagki)," Boyamin told reporters, Wednesday, October 14.
The effort to remove the communication evidence in question is to delete it. The communication was related to Pinangki's trip to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia twice for all Joko Tjandra.
Witness R is the one who allegedly deleted the evidence of this communication. The evidence was omitted because R was suspected of knowing Pinangki's journey and meeting with Joko Tjandra.
"The process for his cellphone was borrowed or requested by someone related to the PSM prosecutor and then yes, the communications that have been happening are allegedly deleted," he said.
However, regarding the content of the communication, Boyanin was reluctant to speculate. It's just that most likely the communication discussed about the MA fatwa.
"Regardless of communication, communication where you want to meet where you are, right? The initial series of the fatwa is because it relates to departures abroad," he said.
For that, Boyamin asked the Attorney General to investigate the truth of this information. In fact, with this information it is hoped that R's legal status can be upgraded from witness to suspect.
"I asked the investigators in this circular building to immediately process blocking the investigation and removing evidence. Because this is not yet a suspect, so it is possible to be subjected to it," he said.
Meanwhile, prosecutor Pinangki Sirna Malasari has undergone a trial in connection with the alleged bribery case for the MA fatwa.
Attorney Pinangki was charged in three cases. First, the Pinangki prosecutor was charged with receiving 500 thousand US dollars as a down payment for the Supreme Court fatwa so that Joko Tjandra could be free from imprisonment related to the transfer of Bank Bali collection rights.
The second indictment, prosecutor Pinangki was charged with the crime of money laundering. According to the prosecutor, Pinangki received 500 thousand US dollars from Joko Tjandra through Andi Irfan Jaya. The US $ 50 thousand was handed over to Anita Dewi Kolopaking, a lawyer. The prosecutor charged the remaining 450 thousand US dollars of money laundering.
Meanwhile, the third indictment, prosecutor Pinangki, was charged with consensus with Andi Irfan Jaya and Joko Tjandra for giving money to officials of the Attorney General's Office and the Supreme Court. The amount of money promised in this evil conspiracy was 10 million US dollars.
