House supports PLN bid to take serious action against power looters

The House of Representatives supports the efforts by the state electricity company PT PLN to catch and bring to court the power looters, according to legislator Ramson Siagian.

Ramson said that the power looters were "immoral," causing the ailing state company huge financial losses.

PLN was reportedly to have caught 14 power looters mostly hotel and apartment buildings. The case has been delivered to the criminal court. Among of the looters is an apartment developer PT Rasuna Caturtama Corpora, which is linked to the Bakrie Group conglomerate. (*)
