Prosecutors on Wednesday demanded a court hand down a sentence of four years in prison to the former president director of property giant, PT Agung Podomoro Land, Ariesman Widjaja, accusing the businessman of masterminding a high-profile bribery case surrounding the controversial reclamation projects in Jakarta Bay.

The prosecutors claimed that Ariesman was the prime actor in the alleged bribery of former city councilor Muhammad Sanusi of council Commission D, which oversees city development affairs.

The bribe was allegedly intended to influence Jakarta’s north-coast zoning plan for 2015-2035 and the North Jakarta strategic area regional spatial plan draft bylaw.
