The panel of judges at the Bandung Corruption Court sentenced two lawyers, namely Theodorus Yosep Parera and Eko Suparno, accused of being a judge of the Supreme Court (MA), with prison sentences of eight years and five years each.
"Stating that one defendant Theodorus Yosep Parera and two defendants Eko Suparno were found guilty of committing a criminal act of corruption," said Chief Justice Hera Kartiningsih as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 24.
The verdict handed down against Theodorus was an eight-year prison sentence and a fine of Rp. 750 million, a subsidiary of six months in prison. Then the verdict handed down against Eko Suparno was a sentence of five years in prison and a fine of Rp. 750 million, a subsidiary of six months in prison.
The verdict handed down by the judges against the two defendants was lighter than the prosecutor's demands. Previously, the Public Prosecutor from the Corruption Eradication Commission demanded that Theodorus be sentenced to nine years and three months in prison, and Eko was sentenced to six years and five months in prison.

"The defendant's actions did not support the government's program in eradicating corruption, the defendant's actions damaged the image and authority of Indonesian advocates," said the judge.
In his indictment, Theodorus and Eko gave bribes to two Supreme Court judges, namely Sudrajad Dimyati and Gazalba Saleh through a number of ASN (state civil servants) within the Supreme Court as intermediaries. The bribe was carried out at the request of his client, Heryanto Tanaka, who wanted the Supreme Court judge to grant the appeal related to the Intidana Savings and Loans Cooperative (KSP) case.
