Wilmar International Limited said the Central Jakarta District Court has sentenced Muhammad Syafei, Head of Social Security Legal at the group’s Indonesian unit, to six years in prison and a fine of about 0.02 million Singapore dollars for bribing judges.
Prosecutors had sought a 15-year sentence and a fine of roughly 0.05 million Singapore dollars on bribery and money-laundering charges, but the court dismissed the money-laundering count.
Wilmar noted the ruling follows its Apr, 14 2025 disclosure regarding the arrest of several judges who had acquitted three palm-oil companies, including its subsidiaries, of improperly obtaining export permits. The company released the update on Mar, 03 2026.
