AKARTA: The Attorney General's Office is negotiating with the Hong Kong government over the possibility of paying them fees for confiscating the assets of Hendra Rahardja, who was convicted in a Rp 2.6 billion (US$251,083) graft case.
Deputy Attorney General Muchtar Arifin told journalists Wednesday his offce had agreed to pay fees to the Hong Kong government for their help in hunting down Hendra's assets in the country.
"We have not yet reached an agreement over how much money we will pay the Hong Kong administration. We expect they will not ask for much," he said after launching a website at the AGO.
In March 2007, the Central Jakarta District Court sentenced Hendra, who was a former president director of the now-defunct Bank Harapan Santosa (BHS), to life imprisonment for misusing government funds under the Bank Indonesia Liquidity Support (BLBI) scheme.
The court also sentenced Hendra's son Eko Edi Putranto, BHS' former commissioner, to 20 years in prison.
