The most anticipated trial of the year finally ended. The former Echelon III official at the Ministry of Finance, Rafael Alun Trisambodo, who stands trial in the case of alleged corruption and money laundering has been found guilty. Rafael was sentenced to prison in accordance with prosecutors’ demands, but several of the KPK’s allegations were deemed unproven. As a result, the compensation required by the court was not even half the sentence given to his son, Mario Dandy, in a separate case. The KPK is considering appealing.

Towards the end of 2023, the Director General of Minerals and Coal at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources was sued by PT Fajar Mentaya Abadi, there is no information regarding this lawsuit but the company name is very familiar to us. This company was mentioned for being involved in the case of alleged corruption that ensnared the Regent of East Kotawaringin, Supian Hadi (PDIP). What is interesting is that even though Supian has been a suspect since 2019, until now he has not been arrested and even still wants to take part in the upcoming regional head election as a candidate for governor.
