This is as in the primary indictment violating Article 2 Paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 18 Paragraph (1) Letter a, b, Paragraph (2) and Paragraph (3) of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 Paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code and imposing a sentence on the defendant with imprisonment for seven years and six months minus the period of detention that has been served by the defendant with an order that the defendant remains in custody.
