Former vice president Jusuf Kalla says that Finance Minister Sri Mulyani told him that she felt as if she was being manipulated in the Bank Century bailout case.
"[Mulyani] felt as if she was being fooled over the final amount of the bailout, [Rp 6.76 trillion (US$734.86 million)]," Kalla told the House of Representatives’ special committee of inquiry into the bailout on Thursday.
Kalla said that Mulyani's remarks were made during a private meeting between them at his house on Sept. 30, 2009.
On Wednesday, Mulyani told the committee that she was only responsible for a bailout fund amounting to Rp 632 billion.
