Ex-Bank Century pres denies links to big names
January 12, 2010
The legislature’s committee investigating the controversial Bank Century bailout failed Monday to establish any special link between its former owner and the central bank.

Robert Tantular, a previous joint owner of Bank Century, instead claimed Monday that he was the victim of banking policies implemented by high-ranking Bank Indonesia (BI) officials.

Robert, serving a four-year term for embezzling Bank Century customers’ deposits, blamed the initiative to propose a short-term loan facility on the BI.

“The initiative came from the [BI] board of directors,” answered Robert to a question from committee member Misbakhun from the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS).
