BANDUNG - Former mayor of Bandung and accused of bribery in the case of social assistance funds or social assistance for the Bandung City Government in 2009-2010, Dada Rosada is acquitted. The Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Bandung City, Ema Sumarna, said he was grateful.
Dada breathes free air with the status of leave before being released from the Bandung Sukamiskin Correctional Institution (Lapas) on Friday, August 26 morning.
"As a younger person, we have also been a part of his leadership, 'we have nothing else but to say thank you'," said Ema at Bandung City Hall, West Java, quoted from Antara, Friday, August 26.
He also hopes that Dada Rosada can now have time with his family and can fix other things that had been hampered by his prison sentence.
"If there (Sukamiskin Prison) there are limitations, especially now there is support from the family, support from the surrounding environment," he said.
Ema also plans to meet Dada together with the Mayor of Bandung, Yana Mulyana. "But maybe later after working hours, because we have an obligation to serve the community," he added.
He said that Dada Rosada's work program when he was mayor of Bandung from 2003 to 2013, which is still being carried out is related to the arrangement of street vendors (PKL). According to Ema, when Dada was in office, there were a program of seven free street vendors.
"Well, this is what we are consistently doing, now that's one of them," said Ema.
Dada Rosada was released from Sukamiskin Prison, Friday, at around 09.40 WIB, after languishing for about eight years.
Dada was sentenced to 10 years in prison by the Bandung Tipikor District Court in 2014 because he was found guilty of a bribery case in the management of an appeal against a corruption case in social assistance. Dada received almost a year's remission and reduced his prison term.
