Indosurya Case, Prosecutors Ask Investigators to Complete Independent Audit Results

The Attorney General's Office (AGO) spoke about the issue that the handling of the Indosurya case had stalled. The AGO said that the research prosecutor's team had returned the case file to the investigator by requesting that it be accompanied by the results of an independent auditor's audit.

The Attorney General's Office asked investigators to take part in investigating the loss to the community.

"People's losses must be further explored, according to the facts revealed based on the existing documentary evidence, so that complete facts can be obtained in revealing the victims' losses if all the instructions of the public prosecutor are fulfilled," he said.

On the other hand, the research prosecutor's team assessed that investigators had not completed the requested instructions regarding the handling of cases, namely the results of an audit from an independent auditor. This is so that investigators do not only refer to the results of the examination of a public accountant from PT Indosurya Inti Finance, which only concludes that Kospin Indosurya Inti/Cipta in its financial management is said to be 'unqualified'.
