The mystery of judges' wealth

The mystery of judges' wealth

There are many mysteries on this planet. One of them is how the officials of this country, including Commercial Court judges, became so wealthy.

This mystery has long remained a puzzle. But now the answer is about to be revealed. That is what the Public Servants' Wealth Audit Commission (KPKPN) is going to do to the three Commercial Court judges who presided over the bankruptcy case of insurance company PT Asuransi Jiwa Manulife Indonesia.

The things that were uncovered in the investigation carried out by the KPKPN were amazing. For example, some Commercial Court judges could not prove the source of their wealth, which amounted to billions of rupiah stashed in their saving accounts.

Where did the money come from? The answer is, there were some people who showed their appreciation for receiving "justice".

It is obvious that the Commercial Court is a hotbed of such activities. The court even seems to be spoiled with honey, which has led Commercial Court judges to make controversial decisions.

Yet this time, the honey of Manulife has turned to poison. Those judges have been digging their own graves.
