For those who are not within Indonesia the suspended antigraft agency chairman Antasari Azhar is reputed to have ordered the murder of another state firm executive called Nasrudin Zulkarnaen apparently over a love triangle between them and a rather tasy looking "Golf caddy" who was the victims third wife.
It has also been suggested that blackmail may have been an additional motive with the dead man using the romance as a lever to prevent his own company being investigated for corruption.
Yesterdays Jakarta Globe rand a story yesterday with the opening lines as follows:
"Antasari was suspended in May from the KPK and on Tuesday was handed over by police to prosecutors, a sign that his trial is imminent
Antasari Azhar returned to the South Jakarta Prosecutor’s Office on Tuesday — not in his former role as head of the office but instead as the suspected mastermind of a murder, a charge that carries a maximum sentence of death.
Despite being under police escort, the 56-year-old looked calm as he entered the office, where he held the top job until 2007, greeting several prosecutors who used to be his subordinates."
Now, this is where my wry smile came in! Look at the picture below and ask yourself, does it look as though the prosecutor is really going to go after the accused?
Looks more to me, looking at the body language that the outcome has been predetermined!
Another case of "I'm all right Jack" in my opinion. Place your bets please.......
