Misjudging the Case
After delivering his verdict last Monday, Judge Sarpin has seemingly disappeared. He has not returned to the court since, while his colleague, I Made Sutrisna, says he had not seen Sarpin in days.
Sutrisna said that ever since the pre-trial lawsuit was filed by Budi Gunawan against the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) over his indictment for corruption, Sarpin became reclusive. "He's not in today. I don't know why," Sutrisna told Tempo in his office last Friday. Sutrisna, who is also spokesman for the South Jakarta District Court, said the last time Sarpin clocked-in was on Tuesday morning, one day after ruling in Budi Gunawan's favor. After excusing himself, citing fatigue, Sarpin failed to show up for work on Wednesday. On Friday, following Thursday's Lunar New Year holiday, he again failed to turn up.
