Chief Executive of Inhutani V Faces Four-Year Prison Sentence Following Bribery Conviction
JAKARTA — Dicky Yuana Rady, Chief Executive of PT Inhutani V, has been prosecuted for four years and ten months’ imprisonment on charges of accepting bribes from Djunaidi Nur, Director of PT Paramitra Mulia Langgeng (PT PML), to facilitate a forest management cooperation agreement.
“We request the panel of judges to impose a prison sentence of four years and ten months on the defendant, with a fine of 200 million rupiah or alternatively 90 days’ imprisonment,” stated one of the prosecutors from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) during proceedings at the Corruption Court in Jakarta on Thursday, 12 March 2026.
The KPK prosecutors believe Dicky accepted bribes valued at 199,000 Singapore dollars, equivalent to approximately 2.55 billion rupiah, from Djunaidi Nur, the defendant in a separate case file.
The bribes were offered to enable Dicky to arrange for PT PML to continue its cooperation with PT Inhutani V in a forest area utilisation project covering Registers 42, 44, and 46 in Lampung Province.
The cooperation between the two companies had previously lasted from 2009 to 2019. However, following evaluation, the arrangement proved unprofitable for PT Inhutani V.
PT PML and PT Inhutani V became embroiled in a dispute before the Supreme Court (MA). In 2023, the Supreme Court ruled that PT PML was in breach of contract and ordered it to pay 3.4 billion rupiah in damages to PT Inhutani V. This ruling prevented PT PML from continuing to manage the land whose concession was held by PT Inhutani V.
In an effort to resume cooperation with PT Inhutani V, Djunaidi approached various parties, including Dicky. During these negotiations, Dicky allegedly demanded compensation in exchange for facilitating the cooperation agreement between PT PML and PT Inhutani V.
“The defendant contacted Djunaidi Nur and demanded money for his personal benefit. In response to this demand, Djunaidi Nur agreed, hoping that cooperation with PT Inhutani V would continue as he wished,” the prosecutors explained.
In August 2024, Dicky and Djunaidi met at Senayan Golf Restaurant in Jakarta. At that meeting, Djunaidi informed Dicky that he had already paid the 3.4 billion rupiah in damages and fines for breach of contract, including accrued interest. Djunaidi then handed Dicky an envelope containing 10,000 Singapore dollars.
