During the trial, a name appeared, Rani Juliani. His name appeared when the prosecutor read the indictment of the case with Antasari.

Rani is an ex shopping cart golf, which was later cited as Antasari’s motive for plotting Nasrudin’s assassination.

In fact, during the trial, the murder case was even linked to a love triangle following the revelation of the status of Rani, who was the third wife of the late Nasrudin.

Meeting in the hotel room

Reported Kompas.com On October 8, 2009, the prosecutor read a seven-page indictment containing the chronology of Antasari’s meeting with Rani in room 803 of the Grand Mahakam Hotel, Jakarta.

The purpose of the meeting, according to the prosecutor, was to discuss Antasari’s membership in Modern Golf, Tangerang.

On the way home, Antasari gave Rani 300 US dollars. He, explained by the prosecutor, then hugged Rani and asked her to have sex.

However, Rani refused.

“‘Next time sir.’ He did not stop there, the accused then kissed the left cheek and the right cheek, “said the prosecutor during the reading of the accusation.

Rani, continued by the prosecutor, then complained about the meeting with Nasrudin.

Nasrudin then asked Rani to meet again with Antasari, hoping to become his link with the president of KPK to become the Director of BUMN.

“After being contacted, the defendant agreed to meet at the same place. Then, using a taxi, Rani and Nasrudin went to the Grand Mahakam Hotel. Going to the room, the victim was asked to activate the cell phone so that Could I listen to the conversation, ”the prosecutor explained.

Upon meeting, Rani again asked Antasari to become a member of Modern Golf and asked him about the possibility of his ‘relative’ (Nasrudin) becoming Director of BUMN.

During the conversation, the prosecutor said, Antasari began to persuade Rani, starting by asking her for a massage.

“While they were massaging him, the accused turned and kissed the cheek, the lips, unbuttoned his shirt and lowered his left bra while saying ‘he said they wanted the next meeting,'” said the prosecutor.

Rani, turning off her cell phone so that Nasrudin could not hear the conversation, again declined the request. However, according to the prosecutor, Antasari still forced Rani to serve him.

Before returning home, Antasari gave Rani US $ 500.

As he was about to leave the room, Nasrudin came in suddenly and was angry.

“‘Why did you meet my wife here and what did you do to my wife?’ Then (Nasrudin) slapped Rani on the cheek, “the prosecutor said.

Hearing the victim’s anger, the prosecutor said, Antasari replied: “No sir, I still want to improve the country. So hug and talk. Yes, we are a team,” the prosecutor continued.

Upon hearing the accusation, Antasari’s attorney, Juniver Girsang, confirmed that his client met Rani at the hotel.

However, according to him, the charges were fabricated.

“During the meeting, an opinion was formed that Antasari and Rani had committed a wrongful act. This was not true and it was just an invention,” Juniver said.

Antasari, Juniver said, admitted to meeting Rani in 2006 as a caddy for Modern Golf in Tangerang, Banten, and never met again after that.

Then, in May 2009, Rani sent an SMS to Antasari asking him about his activity as a member of Modern Golf because Rani is already a marketing team and is no longer a caddy.

Juniver emphasized that the relationship between Antasari and Nasrudin remained good after the meeting at the hotel.

In fact, Nasrudin had asked Antasari for help in getting one of his relatives accepted to work for the KPK.

Antasari’s confession

Antasari, who was sentenced to 18 years in prison, took several legal steps to free him.

Antasari’s legal team submitted a clemency request to President Joko Widodo on Tuesday (4/28/2015).

The clemency request was even supported by Nasrudin’s family, such as Irawati Arienda’s wife and the victim’s younger brother, Andi Syamsuddin Iskandar.

Antasari was finally sentenced to probation on November 10, 2016, after spending two-thirds of his sentence.

He was acquitted in 2017 after Jokowi granted a clemency request.

In addition to trying to be free, Antasari has appeared on various television shows to emphasize his innocence.

Even when being interviewed on the program “Aiman” in Compass tv, Saturday (1/16/2016), Antasari denied that Rani had been caddy-nya.

“Rani never did it once caddy me, but conditioned so caddy I need to connect, “Antasari said.

Several months before his parole, Antasari was invited to the “Mata Najwa” event, Metro TV, on August 24, 2016.

“I emphasize tonight, there is no love triangle. That’s nonsense. I can be confronted with the person in question right now. Nonsense. And I did not commit the murder, much less the puppeteer,” Antasari said.

“During the trial, the judge asked, ‘Is there really a love triangle?’ I said no, “he said.

At the event, Antasari also exhibited the role of Rani. He admitted that he had received threats from a woman who was none other than Rani.

“It was not Nasrudin who terrified me, but a woman,” Antasari said.

“Rani?” Najwa confirmed.

“Yes,” Antasari replied.

Antasari did not explain what terror Rani had committed. However, that led him to meet Rani at the hotel.

“I never denied that I met,” Antasari said.

“Why in the hotel? I was the president of the Commission for the Eradication of Corruption, I could not be in places that are for public consumption,” he continued.

Regarding the accusation of sexual activity in the hotel of the Prosecutor’s Office, Antasari denied it.

“We were just chatting, the distance is the same as you (Najwa) and me right now,” Antasari said.

Rani, according to Antasari, asked to meet because he wanted to convey a message from his superior.

However, when they met, Rani did not give any message. Then Antasari felt trapped.

“Know Why is that? I said, ‘I’m busy. So you’re not catching your name? “, He said.

Antasari explained that the judge’s accusation that Rani offered to extend Modern Golf membership at the hotel was also false.

“He told the judge, ‘I think this Mr. Antasari has a crush on me.’ That’s his name GR,” Antasari said.
