Corruption Case of Supreme Court Justice Sudrajad's Bribery

Legal Literacy - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named Supreme Court Justice Sudrajat Dimyati as a suspect. This is related to the alleged bribery in handling cases at the Supreme Court. This case originated from criminal reports and civil lawsuits filed with the Semarang District Court by the debtors of the Intidana Savings and Loan Cooperative, Heryanto Tanaka (HT) and Ivan Dwi Kusuma Sujanto (IDKS), represented by their legal counsel, Yosep Parera (YP) and Eko Suparno (ES).

Subsequently, in 2022, suspects Heryanto and Ivan Dwi filed a cassation appeal to the Supreme Court against the decisions of the District Court and High Court, continuing to use Yosep and Eko as their legal counsel.

Yosep and Eko communicated with several employees of the Supreme Court's Registrar's Office who were considered capable of acting as liaisons and facilitators to the Panel of Judges.

Desy Yustria, a civil servant in the Supreme Court's Registrar's Office, was an employee who was willing and agreed with Yosep and Eko. Desy Yustria invited Supreme Court Justice Elly Tri Pangestu and Junior Registrar of the Supreme Court Muhajir Habibie to act as liaisons for the transfer of funds to the Panel of Judges.

Yosep and Eko obtained funds for the judges from Heryanto and Ivan Dwi. Yosep and Eko then handed over approximately SGD 202,000 (equivalent to IDR 2.2 billion) to Desy Yustria, which was then divided, with Desy Yustria receiving approximately IDR 250 million, Muhajir Habibie receiving approximately IDR 850 million, Elly Tri Pangestu receiving approximately IDR 100 million, and Sudrajat Dimyati receiving approximately IDR 800 million through Elly Tri Pangestu.
