In the demands read out by the KPK Public Prosecutor (JPU) Bernard Simanjuntak at the Bandung Corruption Court, the prosecutor said that Sunjaya was guilty of accepting bribes, gratuities and money laundering offenses totaling Rp66 billion.

"Demanding that the panel of judges impose a sentence on the defendant for seven years with a fine of Rp. 1 billion, subsidiary to six months in prison," said Bernard as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, July 24.

The Public Prosecutor said Sunjaya had violated Article 12 letter a of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption in conjunction with Article 65 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code, as stated in the first indictment.

The defendant also violated Article 11 of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption in conjunction with Article 65 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code, as stated in the second indictment.
