JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Member of the House of Representatives\u2019\nCommission I from the PDI Perjuangan faction, TB Hasanuddin, considers\nthe acid attack case against KontraS activist Andrie Yunus as an\nopportunity to push for revisions to military justice regulations in the\nTNI Law.<\/p>\n
According to the senior PDI-P politician, as long as military justice\nregulations have not been revised, all cases involving TNI soldiers,\nwhether related to military or civilian criminal acts, must still be\nprocessed through military courts.<\/p>\n
\u201cLike it or not, whether we like it or not, the military justice\nsystem has not been changed or revised yet. Although the TNI Law has\nbeen revised, the mandate to amend the military justice law has not been\nimplemented,\u201d Hasanuddin said when met at the PDI-P Party School in\nSouth Jakarta on Saturday (18\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n
Therefore, Hasanuddin believes there needs to be a change in\nregulations so that general criminal cases committed by TNI soldiers can\nbe tried in general courts.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, for cases related to military duties and functions,\naccording to Hasanuddin, they can still be handled in military\ncourts.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the future, in my opinion, based on much experience and many\nthings, it would be best to ratify or revise the TNI Law, particularly\nregarding military justice. So that TNI soldiers who commit civilian\ncriminal acts should be tried in civilian courts,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor military matters, yes, in military courts,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut what now? Well, as long as the law has not been changed, we must\nadhere to the principle of following military courts,\u201d Hasanuddin\nexplained.<\/p>\n
Hasanuddin also hopes that the trial process in the case involving\nAndrie Yunus can be conducted openly so that the public can monitor the\nproceedings.<\/p>\n
\u201cI personally hope that the court, even though it is a military\ncourt, is opened transparently and clearly. So that society can provide\nthe best contribution to achieve justice in the best possible way,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n
It is known that the case file for the acid attack on Andrie Yunus\ninvolving four TNI soldiers has been handed over to the Military Court\nII-08 Jakarta on Thursday (16\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n
