Indonesian president will not grant pardon to Suharto son
JAKARTA, Oct 4 (AFP) - 14:40 - Indonesian President Abdurrahman Wahid
said
Wednesday he will not grant a pardon to the youngest son of former
president Suharto to escape an 18-month jail term for corruption.
"No, no," Wahid told journalists who had asked him whether he would
grant
the pardon for Hutomo "Tommy" Mandala Putra.
The president was talking to journalists at the Halim Perdanankusumah
airport here, shortly after his arriving home from a trip overseas.

Indonesian judge says he has not freed Suharto of any charges
JAKARTA, Oct 4 (AFP) - 14:14 - The head of the panel of judges which
dismissed a corruption case against former Indonesian president Suharto
has
said he did not exonerate the former president of all charges and he
could
still face trial, a report said Wednesday.
"The case has not been stopped in any way ... whether tomorrow, a week
or a
month later, if prosecutors want to bring back the case into this court,
the case will just get a new number," Judge Lalu Mariyun said according
to
the Jakarta Post.
Mariyun said Suharto was still a suspect, and the reason the judges
closed
the trial last week was because the prosecutors had failed to produce
the
defendant in court -- not because teams of doctors said the 79-year-old
former dictator was unfit for trial.
Under Indonesian law, the prosecution is responsible for producing
defendants in court.
"We have not freed Suharto of any charge. He is a suspect," Mariyun
said.
"Why was it that Suharto could be brought to Pertamina hospital in South
Jakarta for reexamination by the medical team, but failed to show up in
court?" Mariyun said.
One of Suharto's lawyers, Juan Felix Tampubolon, had gloated after the
September 28 verdict that since the court closed the case after doctors
said Suharto was unfit for trial, then the former president could never
again be taken to court, on any charge, in the future.
A team of independent doctors set up on the court's order to give the
final
say on Suharto's health, examined the former leader for nine hours
before
the last trial session.
Suharto, however, has never showed up at any of the three sessions of
his
corruption trial which began on August 31, with his defence lawyers
citing
his ill health.
"They (the prosecutors) should have taken some sort of action. They were
waiting for judges to issue a court order to bring in the defendant by
force ... isn't that against the law on human rights?" Mariyun said.
He said the ruling by the five member-panel of judges on September 28 to
close the trial "is like what a court does with police dossiers."
When the prosecutors' office receives incomplete dossiers from the
police
for a trial, the office returns it to the police for further work so the
files can be complete, he added.
"And that is what we have been doing," he said.
Mariyun said the judges had refused a proposal by the prosecutors to
visit
Suharto at his residence to determine if his health prevented him from
attending the trial.
"Why should judges give priority to this defendant? He deserves no
special
treatment, the case should proceed in court and not at the defendant's
convenience and his residence," Mariyun said.
President Abdurrahman Wahid has called the decision to drop the case
against Suharto "biased" and has said he expected prosecutors to appeal
the
verdict.
Suharto was accused of stealing 571 million dollars from the state by
allegedly funnelling money from huge tax-free charity foundations he ran
into the businesses of family and friends.

Indonesian prosecutor adamant Suharto crony guilty of corruption
JAKARTA, Oct 4 (AFP) - 13:01 - Prosecutors on Wednesday insisted that
timber baron Muhammad "Bob" Hasan, a close business partner of former
Indonesian president Suharto, had unlawfully pocketed hundreds of
millions
of dollars from state coffers.
Arnold Angkouw, who heads a team of state prosecutors, told Central
Jakarta
Court that the defendant's argument that the charges were unclear and
legally flawed was baseless.
Angkouw said the charges "have a legal base and were prepared carefully,
clearly and comprehensively," and were in line with the code regulating
the
judgement of criminal cases.
The prosecutors accuse Hasan of having defrauded the state of 75.6
million
dollars and the Indonesian Association of Forest Concessionaires (APHI)
of
another 168.1 million dollars through an aerial mapping project.
Defence lawyers have argued that the charges were based on a 1971 law
that
was revoked in August last year and therefore had no legal basis.
Angkouw called on the panel of judges to rule in its next session on
October 12 that the case against Hasan, a former minister and member of
the
International Olympic Committee, will continue to be heard.
The judges also decided to defer until the next session a decision on a
defence request for a stay of Hasan's detention or at least a conversion
of
his house arrest into a city arrest.
Hasan served as minister of industry and trade in Suharto's last cabinet
before the dictator resigned under public pressure in May 1998.
The prosecution accused Hasan of "enriching himself" at the expense of
the
state, between 1989 and 1999 as APHI chairman or as the majority
shareholder in PT Adikarto Printindo and PT Mapindo Parama.
Hasan had signed a contract for aerial mapping of forest concessions in
Borneo, but the results did not meet the technical requirements set down
by
the forestry and plantation ministry.
The forestry ministry found the aerial photographs of such bad quality
that
they were unuseable, according to the prosecutor's office.
The prosecutor also said that Hasan had employed his own firm Adikarto
Printindo, which he later disguised as another firm, Mapindo Parama, to
do
the aerial photography job at vastly inflated prices.
Over nine years Hasan transferred 168.1 million dollars of APHI's cash
into
the bank account of his own company Printindo, which later changed its
name
to Mapindo Parama.
