Trial in State-Owned Bank Branch Head Murder Case Continues on 27 April 2026 with Witness Examination Agenda
The Military Court II-08 in Jakarta has confirmed that it will hold a witness examination hearing in the case of the murder of the head of a state-owned bank branch, Mohammad Ilham Pradipta, on Monday (27/4/2026).
This was stated by the Chief Judge of the Panel, Colonel Chk Fredy Ferdian Isnartanto, after reading out the interim decision rejecting the exceptions from the defendant’s legal counsel.
In this case, there are three defendants: Serka Muhammad Nasir, Kopda Feri Heriyanto, and Serka Frengky Yaru.
In the hearing, the panel of judges requested that the Military Prosecutor present all 17 witnesses related to this case.
Military Prosecutor Major Chk Wasinton Marpaung explained that out of the total 17 witnesses, 15 are civilian suspects.
“We will coordinate with the Prosecutor’s Office later for their summoning. And up to now, we still do not know where those civilian suspects are detained. We will study it first, coordinate, and it might be easier for the summoning,” Wasinton said.
Judge Fredy also asked the Military Prosecutor to arrange the witness examination schedule because the trial time is limited.
This is because the detention period for two defendants, namely Serka Muhammad Nasir and Kopda Feri Heriyanto, will end on 7 June 2026.
Previously, the Military Prosecutor’s Office (Otmil) II-07 Jakarta charged Serka Mochamad Nasir, Kopda Feri Herianto, and Serka Franky Yari in the premeditated murder case related to the death of the state-owned bank branch head, Mohammad Ilham Pradipta, at the Military Court II-08 Jakarta.
Military Prosecutor Major Chk Wasinton Marpaung stated that the actions of the defendants have fulfilled the elements of the criminal offence as regulated in Article 340 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) first of the Criminal Code, in conjunction with Article 459 of Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code, and in conjunction with Article 20 letter a of the same law.
In addition to the main charge of premeditated murder, the military prosecutor also submitted a subsidiary charge, namely ordinary murder. This charge is prepared if the main charge is not proven in the trial.
“Article 338 of the Criminal Code jo Article 55 paragraph 1 first of the Criminal Code jo Article 458 paragraph 1 of Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code jo Article 20 letter d,” stated the Military Prosecutor.
“Article 333 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code jo Article 55 paragraph 1 first of the Criminal Code jo Article 451 jo Article 20 letter d of the Republic of Indonesia Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code,” he added.
Specifically for defendant Nasir, the military prosecutor also added a charge related to the act of concealing the death.
“Article 181 of the Criminal Code jo Article 55 paragraph 1 first of the Criminal Code jo Article 270 of the Republic of Indonesia Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code jo Article 20 letter a of Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code,” he explained.
