        "summary": "The FHUI Research Cluster on Criminal Procedure and Judicial Systems has concluded that Muhamad Kerry Adrianto Riza experienced an unfair trial in the corruption case involving PT Pertamina's oil and refinery product governance. An examination by nine UI experts and one from UGM highlighted violations of due process, including insufficient preparation time for the defendant and judicial pressure to expedite proceedings to avoid his release upon detention expiry. This analysis underscores significant flaws in Indonesia's criminal justice system, potentially breaching international human rights standards ratified by the country.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta \u2013 The Research Cluster on Criminal Procedure Law and Judicial\nSystems of the Faculty of Law, University of Indonesia (FHUI Criminal\nProcedure Research Cluster) assesses that Muhamad Kerry Adrianto Riza\nunderwent an unfair trial or unjust court process in the trial\nconcerning alleged corruption in the management of crude oil and\nrefinery products at PT Pertamina.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of the conclusions from the FHUI Criminal Procedure\nResearch Cluster\u2019s examination of the verdict from the Jakarta\nCorruption Court in the alleged corruption case of crude oil and\nrefinery product management at PT Pertamina, under Verdict Number 102\nPid.Sus-TPK\/2025\/PN. Jkt against the defendant Muhamad Kerry Adrianto\nRiza.<\/p>\n<p>The examination involved nine legal experts from the University of\nIndonesia (UI) and one from Gadjah Mada University (UGM). It focused on\nseveral legal issues grouped into clusters: criminal law and criminal\nprocedure law, civil law, company law, and public finance law.<\/p>\n<p>The experts serving as examiners were Dr Febby Mutiara Nelson, Prof\nRosa Agustina, Dr Sri Laksmi Aninditas, Prof Yetty Komalasari Dewi,\nIrmansyah, Dr Hendry Julian Noor, Dr Yuli Indrawati, Prof Topo Santoso,\nDr Flora Dianti, and Choky Risda Ramadhan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDoes this verdict reflect fair trial, due process of law, and\nproportionality in the criminal justice system? From what we heard\nearlier on civil law, state financial crimes, material criminal law, and\nprocedure, all indicate that this verdict contains an unfair trial,\u201d\nstated the Head of the Examination Team, Dr Febby Mutiara Nelson SH, MH,\nduring a press conference following the examination hearing in Jakarta\non Saturday, 11 April 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The Head of the Examination Team explained that this unfair trial or\nunjust adjudication is evident, among other things, in the limited time\ngiven to the defendant to prepare his defence.<\/p>\n<p>This is deemed to violate criminal procedure law, as well as the\nprinciples of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights\n(ICCPR) and conventions on defendants\u2019 rights that Indonesia has\nratified.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecondly, the unfair trial is apparent in the efficiency of the case\ntimeline. The panel of judges continued to emphasise the time\nconstraints of the trial, stating that it must be completed as a target,\nas the defendant\u2019s detention period would expire. If the detention\nexpires, he would be released by law. This was conveyed by the judge and\nincorporated into the considerations,\u201d said Febby.<\/p>",
