Corruption investigation in PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk began five years ago. The process was so slow that it raised question marks over the performance of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). The trial of the suspects, including Garuda Indonesia’s former President Director, Emirsyah Satar, produced a very disappointing verdict. Later, the Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN), Erick Thohir, approached the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) with a corruption report. This is confusing because the allegations reported are already in the KPK’s indictment tried by the corruption court. We wonder if there is any other evidence that the KPK could not find before, that this case must be re-examined by the AGO. Recently, Emir finally stands trial as graft suspect for the second time.
