The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) named PT Merial Esa (PT ME) a suspect in 2019 in connection to the Bakamla graft case. The Company’s owner, Fahmi Darmawansyah, was convicted in the same case in 2017. However, it took longer for the KPK to prosecute the Company. The trial on PT ME only started in January 2022. Unlike the prolonged inquisition process, the court proceedings take place quickly. Far from media coverage, the prosecutors have read out their demands this week.To subscribe please click here
