Lawyer Zulfikar explained that the defendant used the funds from the incorrect transfer of Rs 51 million by a former BCA employee to purchase essential items and settle debts.
“An onerous consideration was that the defendant had enjoyed the illicit money transfer and the defendant was entangled during the trial. As a relief, the defendant is still young and has never been convicted,” Zulfikar explained when reading his charges Wednesday.

Regarding the prosecutor’s claims, Ardi through his team of lawyers will present a defense.
“We will present a plea or defense at the hearing next week,” said Ardi’s attorney, Dipertius.
It was previously reported that Ardi, who works as a car racer, has been in custody since November 26, 2020.
He is in prison after a former BCA employee, Nur Chuzaimah, denounced him for using an incorrect transfer of 51 million rupees.
Ardi thought the money was a commission from the sale of two cars from his business.
However, it turned out that the money he had put into his account was an incorrect transfer.
Nur admitted that he had entered the wrong account number until he logged into Ardi’s account.
He had tried to meet with Ardi and had asked him to return the money.
However, it was said that Ardi had no good intention of returning it, so Nur reported Ardi to the police. (Surabaya Contributing Writer, Achmad Faizal | Editor Dheri Agriesta)
