Hadi Poernomo's War

The battle being waged by former tax director general Hadi Poernomo can pose a serious threat to our attempts at eradicating corruption. He has already reduced the authority of Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigators through a pre-trial hearing over a corruption case at Bank Central Asia. Hadi won, and his status as a suspect was revoked.

Now he has taken the finance ministry's inspector general to the State Administrative Court (PTUN) over the same case. By initiating lawsuits left and right, Hadi's games are becoming somewhat inane. His son, Aryadi Jaya, has also reported Hadi Rudjito to the police for making a false statement. Rudjito was the inspector general at the time of the investigation. The police issued an investigation order document on July 3.
