Gayus the Taxman


Gayus Tambunan, the Taxman (picture: Left) has been detained by the Police for alleged Corruption and Bribery charges now being tried at the District Court of South Jakarta.

Gayus has been detained by the National Police at the headquarters of the Police' Mobile Brigade, but the news media reported recently that a man who looks like Gayus (picture: Right) appeared at an International Tennis Tournament in the island of Bali.

Due to this report, the Police has investigated and arrested nine Police officers responsible for Gayus' detention at the headquarters of the Police's Mobile Brigate in Jakarta.

    Yes we have written the same very hot (and shameful) topic today.
    Let us hope that this case will be investigated thoroughly and those responsible would be punished.

  6. Saung Web,
    We are a big country but our law enforcement cannot keep a crime suspect in jail. That's very sad.

  7. I also had time to write this story. I think this is a challenge for the new police chief. is it very difficult to keep one man who armed only with money?

  9. @Reborn,
    Let us hope that the new police chief would immediately settle this case, otherwise it would give a very bad impression on the police.

    @Dee,
    Right now nine police officers responsible for the jail are being investigated. Hopefully everyone involved in the case would be punished according to the law.

    @Cucuharis,
    Gayus seemingly "very strong" that he can leave jail and go to Bali.

  11. Hi Nizam

    hope they're nipping the
    ikan BESAR, and not the
    ikan BILIS like it's
    always the case.

    Sometimes, it's just a
    facade by the anti corruption
    people to show how "good" they
    are at the job, when in fact
    the real fishes are lurking
    around the corner...possibly
    laughing all the way to the
    bank.

    I'm not only commenting on
    your country alone, but also
    my homeland, where politicians
    are becoming more brazen everyday
    because they have connections
    with the anti corruption people.
    ( Ironically anti corruption
    people are also CORRUPT !) Same
    goes to the judges...

    Actually i admire the judiciary
    in Taiwan, where even the ex-
    president can be brought to
    justice for corruption. Nobody
    should be above the law...no matter
    how popular is he with the public.

    Sad that most ASEAN countries
    (with the exception of Singapore)
    tolerate "a bit" corruption

    With this kind of attitude, these
    selfish bozos will continue
    "raping the country" bare.

    Benci !

  12. I read in the comments it is a hot topic. But we still don't know for sure if he is the man in the picture or if he is a lookalike, do we?

  13. @Seiri,
    This very ugly thing is making so many people in Indonesia very sick.

    @Big Bear's Wife,
    I like the way you say it.
    Yes, beside taking the small bad guys the should also get the big ones.
    It is very sad to know that most Asean countries seemingly tolerate corruption a bit like you said.
    Let us hope that the condition would improve, perhaps by having a joint effort to fight corruption.

    @Colson,
    Although it is still not sure that the guy in Bali is Gayus, but there are reports that Gayus and other suspects have been enjoying privileges to leave jail by paying money, and 9 officers responsible for Gayus' detention have been arrested by the police.
    Of course in order to know for sure we will have to wait for the results of police investigations.

  15. @Wardi,
    Gayus is a low profile man ? maybe because he is just low level taxman.

    @Bali Deals,
    You met Gayus in Bali? WOW! I'd like to know your story.

  18. Cintapuguh,
    Anda benar Gayus luar biasa jahat, menggunakan uang untuk memperdayai petugas rumah tahanan dan pejabat negara lainnya.

  20. Senja,
    Iya hebat sekali, ditengah gencarnya upaya penegakkan hukum, hal seperti ini bisa terjadi. Uang memang berkuasa.
    Wig Gayus: ha ha ha ...

  21. the most boring case EVER! He probably will get 2 years sentence and just walk away... He does not seem to care. I have never seen him bowed his head in embarrassment

  22. Dream Catcher,
    He has reasons not to be ashamed of what he did because he thinks that he can buy anything/anyone.
    But let's hope that law enforcement would improve.
