THE HIGH COURT AMENDS THE DISTRICT COURT VERDICT IN INDAR ATMANTO’S CASE

Jakarta, January 15, 2014

On January 10, 2014, the Central Jakarta’s High Court officially notified PT Indosat Tbk (“Indosat”), through the Law office of Luhut Marihot Parulian Pangaribuan (LMPP), that the Panel of Judges of DKI Jakarta’s High Court has rendered a decision on the appeal submitted on criminal case no. 01/Pid.Sus/Tpk/2013/PN. Jkt. PSt. The High Court’s Panel of Judges confirmed the decision of the Corruption Court’s Panel of Judges who found the Defendant, Indar Atmanto, the former President Director of PT Indosat Mega Media (“IM2”), guilty of the crime of corruption by virtue of representing IM2 in entering into a cooperation agreement with Indosat. The High Court’s Judges, on one hand, imposed a higher jail term of 8 years, and monetary fine Rp. 200 million or additional 3 months imprisonment on Indar Atmanto. However, on the other hand, the High Court reversed the monetary fine of Rp 1.3T (Rp. 1.358.343.346.674,-) imposed on IM2 considering that, among others, a corporation is a legal entity, therefore such corporation must be indicted before it can be sentenced, and it is unlawful to impose additional sanction on a legal entity that has not been indicted.

This case was initiated with the claim by the Attorney General Office against Indar Atmanto in January 2012 related to the utilization of Indosat’s 3G telecommunication network by IM2 pursuant to a certain cooperation agreement. The Ministry of Communications and Information Technology has issued a letter No. 65/M.KOMINFO/2012 dated 24 Febuary 2012 stating that there was no breach of law and no outstanding payment is owed to the State resulting from the collaboration between IM2 and Indosat on the utilization of Indosat’s 3G telecommunication network by IM2. The Indonesian Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (ITRA) has also publicly stated that IM2 had not breached any laws. Upon commencement of this case, through several occasions and public discussions, many telecommunications and legal experts have stated that this case should have never initiated in the first place as there was no breach of any law.

Alexander Rusli, the President Director & CEO of PT Indosat Tbk. stated:

“We cannot accept this verdict since we have complied with all prevailing regulations. Apart from that, various authorized parties and experts with competence in the field have explained either during the court proceeding or other forums that the indictments are unfounded, the agreement entered into by the parties is also in full compliance of the applicable telecommunication regulation. This verdict eliminates business certainty in telecommunication sector and eliminates legal protection for management who has duly engaged its duty. Therefore, we will continue to undertake any available legal remedy.”
