Former Bank Bali President Director Rudi Ramli (C) is escorted by plainclothes security officers as he arrives at a South Jakarta court November 17. The first trial of suspects in Indonesia's politically charged "Baligate" bank scandal got under way on Wednesday with former Bank Bali director and three former directors in the dock. The trial had been posponed from last week due to Ramli's ill health.
