During his time as a prosecutor, Djoko Budiharjo served as Kajati Riau, Kajati Southeast Sulawesi, Kajati West Java, and Sesjamwas.

After retiring, Djoko worked as a defender and kept the foreign currency banknotes.

According to legal counsel, the late Djoko saved the money for his wife, Pinangki.

“What the deceased said was for the survival of his wife, because he realized that he could not accompany his wife who was 41 years apart, so he also prepared a large amount of savings,” he said.

Later, Pinangki remarried Napitupulu Yogi Yusuf, who was a member of the police with the rank of AKBP.

The lawyer said that Pinangki and Yogi reached an agreement considering the late Djoko’s many legacies.

“Considering the many legacies of the defendant’s late husband, in this second marriage the defendant made a separate succession agreement with Napitupulu Yogi Yusuf,” he said.

The information, the lawyer said, was deliberately disclosed in an exception to answer questions about Pinangki’s lifestyle, which was deemed excessive and incompatible with his work as a prosecutor.
