Indonesian judges who cleared three palm oil companies of corruption charges arrested
Wilmar Group, Musim Mas Group and Permata Hijau Group were acquitted last month
Authorities alleged that lawyers for the oil companies paid chief judge Muhammad Arif Nuryanta of the South Jakarta district court 60bn rupiah (£2.6m) to arrange for a favourable verdict.
The chief judge, in turn, paid over £756000 to the three other judges of the anti-corruption who delivered the ruling.
A court clerk and two lawyers have also been arrested in the case that has rocked the judiciary in the world’s largest palm oil producer.
