The Attorney General’s Office (Kejagung) claims that the corruption case concerning the creation of village websites in Karo Regency, North Sumatra, which implicates Toni Aji Anggoro, has already reached a final and binding status.

“This case has already proceeded and is inkrah,” stated the Head of the Legal Information Centre (Kapuspenkum) of Kejagung, Anang Supriatna, on Thursday, 23 April 2026.

He explained that although this case was also handled by the Karo District Prosecutor’s Office (Kejari Karo), it differs from the case of Amsal Sitepu.

“But the cases are different. Indeed, it was handled by the Karo Kejari side, no problem, it’s already inkrah. This case has some that are inkrah, some with issued DPOs. They vary,” he said.

Previously, a crowd from the Putera Jawa Kelahiran Sumatera (Pujakesuma) group held a demonstration in front of the Medan District Court (PN Medan) demanding the release of Toni Aji Anggoro in the village website corruption case in Karo Regency.

During the action, the crowd delivered orations and urged the court to free Toni, who had been found guilty.

The protest briefly heated up when the crowd attempted to enter the court area by shaking the fence and throwing water at the officers.

A representative of the crowd, Eko Sopianto, stated that Toni did not deserve punishment because he only acted as a worker in creating the village website.

“We demand that the court free Toni Aji Anggoro. He was only a worker asked by the village head,” he said.

In that case, Toni Aji Anggoro was sentenced to one year in prison and a fine of Rp50 million, subsidiary two months’ imprisonment, while the defendant Jesaya Perangin-angin was given a sentence of 20 months in prison.

In response to the crowd’s aspirations, the Spokesperson for PN Medan, Soniady Drajat Sadarisma, said that the decision against Toni was handed down on 28 January 2026 and has had the force of law remaining since 5 February 2026.

He added that for a final decision, the available legal remedy is an extraordinary legal effort.

“Legal remedies against a final decision are a Review (PK) to the Supreme Court, which can be filed if new evidence (novum) is found, judicial error, or conflicting decisions,” he stated.
