The 'Snapper's Head' Bribery Network

DJODI Supratman took a free moment to stop by his former office on the fifth floor of the Supreme Court building on Jalan Medan Merdeka Utara, Jakarta, Friday four weeks ago. There he found the office's current occupant, Andri Tristianto Sutrisna, at work. "I just said hello," Djodi told Tempo on Tuesday last week. Andri moved into the office after being named head of the subdirectorate of civil cassation at the Supreme Court near the end of 2012.

A little while back, a staff member in the same subdirectorate, Djoko, was released from prison in July 2015 after completing a two-year prison term for brokering bribes at the court. At the time of arrest, Djodi was a staff member at the Supreme Court's Legal Training Agency.
