        "summary": "The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has expressed appreciation for the court's ruling that found two former Pertamina executives, Hari Karyuliarto and Yenni Andayani, guilty of corruption in the procurement of liquefied natural gas (LNG), resulting in a state loss of approximately Rp 2 trillion. Hari, the former Director of Gas at PT Pertamina, received a 4.5-year prison sentence, while Yenni, the former VP of Strategic Planning and Business Development in the Gas Directorate, was sentenced to 3.5 years for misusing their authority in speculative LNG sales that bypassed landing in Indonesia. This verdict underscores the judiciary's commitment to combating corruption in state-owned enterprises, despite mitigating factors such as the defendants' ages over 60 and lack of prior convictions.",
        "content": "<p>The first matter concerns the LNG case ruling. The KPK conveyed its\nappreciation to the panel of judges for finding the defendants, Mr HK\nand Mr YA, guilty,\u201d said KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to reporters on\nMonday (4\/5\/2026). Through this verdict, the judges are convinced that\nboth are guilty of committing the criminal act of corruption in the LNG\nprocurement. Consequently, in this case, the state suffered a loss of Rp\n2 trillion. \u201cSo, the LNG that had been purchased was resold, without\nfirst landing in Indonesia, but directly sold, thus leading to\nspeculation-speculation. In that business speculation, it resulted in a\nfinancial loss to the state of around Rp 2 trillion,\u201d he stated. The two\ndefendants are Hari Karyuliarto (HK), the former Director of Gas at PT\nPertamina, and Yenni Andayani, the former VP of Strategic Planning and\nBusiness Development in the Gas Directorate of Pertamina. Hari was\nsentenced to 4.5 years, while Yenni received 3.5 years. The judges\nstated that Hari and Yenni were proven guilty of misusing their\nauthority. The judges declared that the actions of Hari and Yenni in\nthis case caused harm to the state\u2019s finances amounting to USD\n113,839,186.60. Aggravating circumstances in the sentencing of Hari and\nYenni include that their actions were deemed not to assist the\ngovernment\u2019s programme in eradicating criminal acts of corruption.\nMeanwhile, mitigating circumstances are that Hari and Yenni are each\nover 60 years old and have never been convicted before. The judges\ndeclared Hari Karyuliarto and Yenni Andayani guilty of violating Article\n3 in conjunction with the Corruption Eradication Law in conjunction with\nArticle 55 paragraph 1 first of the Criminal Code in conjunction with\nArticle 64 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code as charged.<\/p>",
