Indonesia minister says sacking Garuda CEO over smuggled HarleyThe CEO of Indonesia’s national airline Garuda will be sacked for allegedly smuggling a Harley Davidson motorcycle into the country and using a sub-ordinate’s name on import papers to avoid detection, a minister said Thursday. State-owned enterprises minister Erick Thohir said the airline’s chief Ari Ashkara allegedly brought over parts of the disassembled motorbike on a plane from France last month. The alleged smuggling was meant to avoid declaring the 800 million rupiah ($57,000) motorbike to customs, he added.
