Tax Breaks and Brokers Gang Strikes

A recent internal investigation by the Finance Ministry revealed more machinations by the Gayus Tambunan tax mafia. Suspected of being involved are officials from the Finance Ministry’s Inspectorate General and clerks working at the Tax Court. Their sins range from failing to reveal an important document to quietly resolving a tax problem for one of Gayus’s clients. Although they have already been punished, their names have never been revealed to the public. At the end of April, a team investigating the Gayus case, led by Vice President Boediono, will announce its findings.
