Lawmaker Gets Five Years for False Testimony in Graft Trial

“They contradicted the facts, testimony from other witnesses, and other evidence.”

Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigators brought into a trial hearing in March countered claims by Miryam, who attended several KPK questioning sessions in December and January.

In another hearing in April, Miryam revoked all her testimony from the KPK investigation report she had signed.

“I object to the verdict,” the lawmaker of the People’s Conscience Party (Hanura) said after Monday’s hearing, adding that she was considering to appeal.

The sentence was lighter than the prison term of eight years and a Rp 300 million fine demanded by KPK prosecutors.
