The bankruptcy trustees rejected a EUR 40 million claim from Bank Indonesia and submitted a counterclaim of more than EUR 80 million. According to the bankruptcy trustees, Bank Indonesia breached a contractual guarantee under which it was obliged to enable Indover Bank to meet its obligations. In a decision of 28 June 2019, the Supreme Court dismissed the bankruptcy trustees' claim.
