Hearing of Sutiyoso lawsuit begins<\/p>\n
JAKARTA: The South Jakarta District Court began hearing on
\nTuesday Governor Sutiyoso's lawsuit against activist Irma
\nHutabarat over the alleged misuse of charity funds.<\/p>\n
The trial was adjourned for a week because of the absence of
\nlawyers representing Irma, the chairwoman of the Institute of
\nCivic Education on Indonesian (ICE on Indonesia).<\/p>\n
The suit accuses ICE on Indonesia of misusing Rp 3.65 billion
\n(US$4.3 million) that was collected in 2002 for the Bang Yos and
\nJakarta Residents Care for Education program.<\/p>\n
An audit completed by Brikbey Hamdan indicated that ICE on
\nIndonesia had used some of the money to purchase Bank Indonesia
\ncertificates, which were deposited in an HSBC bank. The remaining
\nfunds were deposited in an account at Lippo Bank. -- JP<\/p>",
