Luhut Believed to be Involved
Tuesday, December 15, 2015
Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Luhut Binsar Panjaitan has been implicated in the 'Papa wants shares' scandal. Two weeks ago, the former presidential chief of staff's name was heard at the House of Representative's (DPR) ethics council (MKD) 66 times when a recorded discussion between DPR Speaker Setya Novanto, oil tycoon Muhammad Reza Chalid and Freeport Indonesia CEO Maroef Sjamsoeddin was played.
On June 8, in a meeting at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Jakarta, Setya, Reza and Maroef discussed plans to extend Freeport's contract ending in 2021. Maroef confirmed the meeting had taken place but was silent about Luhut. The fact is, Luhut's name was mentioned several times in the discussion, for example in the following transcript excerpt:
