Graft suspect Gayus Halomoan Tambunan is hopeful South Jakarta District Court presiding judge Albertina Ho will be fair in issuing her verdict after prosecutors demanded he serve 20 years’ imprisonment in relation to his lengthy and politically charged tax fraud case.
“Regardless of the indictment, I am sure Mrs. Albertina Ho will remain objective and issue a verdict based on facts,” Gayus said Wednesday.
Previously, Albertina had acquitted Andy Wahab from charges after prosecutors demanded he serve 17 years in prison, he said.
“I hope the same will happen for me.”
Gayus said there were numerous errors in the indictment, including allegations he had met his former lawyer Haposan Hutagalung at the Sultan Hotel in Jakarta. According to Gayus, the meeting was held at the Park Lane Apartments (also in Jakarta) in June.
