Over a year ago the Jakarta High Prosecutor’s Office (Kejati Jakarta) issued a warrant for the commencement of inquisition (sprindik) in the procurement of coal for PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) in Muara Enim, Palembang, South Sumatera. The Kejati named two suspects in the case. One of them is Kokos Jiang (previously known as Kokos Leo Lim), the owner of Sugico group. He was involved in a dispute against Reliance Power Netherlands BV, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Indian power producer Reliance Power Ltd. Kokos filed a lawsuit against Reliance in June 2019. Three days after that, the Central Jakarta District Court ruled in favor of Kokos and acquitted him of all charges, but the story is not over. Kokos has other legal problem. On August 13, 2019, he was sued by one Chenny Kolondam. The lawsuit is related to a dispute over a rental contract worth less than Rp2 billion, but Chenny is an interesting person.
