Jakarta (ANTARA) - Coordinating Minister for Law, Human Rights,\nImmigration, and Corrections Yusril Ihza Mahendra stated that the\nproposal from Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka regarding the acid\nattack case against KontraS activist Andrie Yunus will be discussed by\nthe government with the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n
In his official broadcast in Jakarta this week, Vice President Gibran\ndeemed it important to have ad hoc judges to try the Andrie Yunus\ncase.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe, the government, will certainly discuss it with the Supreme Court\n(MA) to facilitate the proposals and suggestions put forward by the Vice\nPresident. Hopefully, there will be a way out to accommodate the\nsuggestions and proposals conveyed by the Vice President,\u201d said\nCoordinating Minister Yusril in response to reporters\u2019 questions when he\nwas met at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta on Friday.<\/p>\n
On the same occasion, Yusril explained that the possibility of\ninvolving ad hoc judges in the acid attack case against Andrie remains\nopen. In the legislation, the involvement of ad hoc judges is explicitly\nmentioned, particularly in human rights courts and corruption criminal\ncourts.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is not closed off for certain cases; ad hoc judges can also be\nrecruited to handle specific cases. And for that, there needs to be a\ndiscussion between the government and the Supreme Court,\u201d said\nYusril.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, Yusril emphasised that so far, there are no civilian\nsuspects in the Andrie case. The four perpetrators designated as\nsuspects are all TNI soldiers.<\/p>\n
Therefore, Yusril explained that the acid attack case against Andrie\nwill be tried by a military court.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf now, because no civilian suspects have been found, then the trial\nis entirely a military court, and this is in accordance with the\nprovisions of the Military Court Law,\u201d said Yusril.<\/p>\n
The Military Police Centre on Tuesday (7\/4) has handed over the case\nfile of the acid attack against Andrie to the Military Prosecutor\u2019s\nOffice II-07 Jakarta.<\/p>\n
If deemed complete, the case will soon be handed over to the Military\nCourt II-08 Jakarta for trial.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the TNI\u2019s Central Inspectorate has designated four TNI\nsoldiers, who are members of the TNI Strategic Intelligence Agency\n(BAIS), as suspects at the end of last month.<\/p>\n
The four suspects are Captain NDP, First Lieutenant SL, First\nLieutenant BHW, and Second Sergeant ES.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/yusril-proposal-from-vice-president-on-andrie-yunus-case-to-be-discussed-with-supreme-court-1775829054", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
