The investigation that followed the report on the misuse of 3G frequency by PT Indosat (Indosat), which was filed by Indonesian Telecommunication Consumer Non-Governmental Organization, revealed that since 2006, PT Indosat Mega Media (IM2)—PT Indosat’s subsidiary—has been providing broadband internet services using Indosat’s 3G radio frequency.
The investigation disclosed that Indar Armanto, former President Director of IM2, previously signed an agreement on utilization of 3G frequency with Keizab Bomi Heerjee, now former Deputy Director of Indosat.
Although IM2 is a subsidiary of Indosat, IM2 is not authorized to utilize Indosat 3G frequency because IM2 never participated in a 3G mobile broadband frequency auction.
Investigators confirmed that Indar’s actions violated Article 33 of Law No. 36 of 1999 on Telecommunication and Article 58 (3) of Government Regulation No. 52 of 2000 on Implementation of Telecommunication.
Not only that, Indar also violated Minister of Telecommunication and Information Technology Regulation No. 07/PER/M./KOMINFO/2/2006 on Provisions on the Utilization of 2,1 GHz Radio Frequency Band for Mobile Cellular Network.
Indar is also charged with an act of corruption by violating Articles 2 and 3 of Law No. 31 of 1999 on Eradication of Corruption, as amended by Law No. 20 of 2001.
Based on the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) audit result, investigators at the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) of the Attorney General Office stated that the amount of state losses caused by Indosat has reached more than a trillion rupiah.
“The state suffered IDR 1,3 trillion in losses based on the [BPKP] audit,” said Jampidsus Andhi Nirwanto on Monday (12/11).
Andhi expects that investigators will press charges after they have received the audit results and collect other evidence on Indar’s corruption act.
Adrian Prasanto, Head of the Public Relations Division of Indosat, confirmed that Indosat has received a copy of the audit results. However, Adrian firmly denied that there has been corruption within Indosat.
“All of Indosat’s operational activities have always been in accordance with laws and regulations,” he argued.
