JAKARTA, July 11 (Xinhuanet) -- Indonesian police
have apprehended former president director of state labor insurance company PT
Jamsostek Ahmad Djunaidi on suspicion of involvement in a 250 billion rupiah
(about 25.5 million US dollars) graft case.
Djunaidi, accompanied by his wife,
has just returned from a minor hajj on board a Malaysian aircraft and was
arrested on his arrival at the Soekarno-Hatta international airport on Sunday,
official news agency Antara reported Monday.
Supriatna Anwar, head of the Immigration Directorate
General's administration and public relations division, said Djunaidi was
actually banned from overseas travel.
The police accompanied by personnel of the
directorate general and a public prosecutor brought Djunaidi to an unknown
destination, he added.
According to him, Djunaidi said he did not know that
he was banned from leaving the country.
Meanwhile, Supriatna said an immigration official who
accompanied Djunaidi on his journey home told him that the former Jamsostek
president director had been declared a suspect in the graft case and therefore
banned from overseas travel.
Police had originally planned to question Djunaidi on
Tuesday (July 5) but the suspect did not show up, chief of inter-departmental
corruption eradication team (Tastipikor) Hendraman Supandji said.
Supandji said the team would soon serve the suspect a
second summon. If he ignored this again, police would issue a third one, he
said.
"Under the Penal Code he will be forced to appear
after also ignoring the third summons," he said.
Djuniadi is the second Jamsostek executive named a
suspect in the corruption case of the purchase of 100 billion rupiah (about 10
million US dollars) worth of bonds from the defunct Bank Global. Enditem
