Indonesian Singer, Ariel Peterpan Allowed To Work Outside Of Prison
By Ahmad Fuad Yahya
JAKARTA, Feb 10 (Bernama) -- Indonesian singer Ariel Peterpan, who is
serving time for his role in the production and distribution of a pornographic
video, has been allowed to work outside the prison pending his release in July.
He is now working with an architecture firm in Bandung district under an
assimilation and counselling programme prior to his release.
The vocalist of the Peterpan group, whose real name is Nazril Ilham, started
with the programme last Jan 16.
During the duration of the programme, he is monitored by the Kebon Waru
Bandung prison warden and is not allowed to perform, play music or be
interviewed by the media.
Ariel was sentenced to three years and six months jail and fined Rp250
million (US$27.8 thousand) by the Bandung District Court after he was found
guilty of making and distributing the pornographic videos.
He had been serving the jail sentence at the Kebon Waru Bandung prison since
June 2010.
