Where is the Truth in Buloggate II?
Akbar Tandjung's story: * Akbar Tandjung initially denied directly receiving the funds. * Akbar said Dadang Ruskandar on behalf of Raudhatul Jannah Foundation accepted the funds for relief operations. * The naming of Raudhatul Jannah to handle the relief had been reported to three ministers (Haryono Suyono, Rahardi Ramelan and Muladi). * The foundation was recommended by Haryono Suyono.
Likely inconsistencies with Akbar: * Former Bulog chief Rahardi Ramelan and the former Bulog deputy finance head Ruskandar disputed Akbar's testimony. Most recently Akbar admitted the checks were in fact on his desk. * There is evidence the checks were accepted by Golkar treasurer Fadel Muhammad and Deputy treasurer MS Hidayat. Ruskandar said Akbar received the checks and handed them to the two treasurers. * All three denied any knowledge. * Haryono Suyono claimed he never made such a recommendation.
