The North Sumatra High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati North Sumatra) has stopped the case of cell phone theft at the Tarutung Regional General Hospital from the North Tapanuli District Attorney's Office with a restorative justice (RJ) approach.

"Previously, the North Sumatra Prosecutor's Office conducted an expose of the case submitted to the Deputy Attorney General for General Crimes (JAM Pidum) Dr Fadil Zumhana represented by the Director of TP Oharda at Jam Pidum Agnes Triani, the Coordinator at Jam Pidum and other officials virtually," said Head of the Legal Information Section of the North Sumatra Prosecutor's Office Yos A Tarigan in Medan as reported by ANTARA, Monday, August 7.

The prosecution was terminated when the suspect and victim had an agreement to make peace, and the suspect regretted his actions and promised not to repeat his actions again.

"The incident began that the suspect was a used bottle collector, then the suspect entered the nurse's guard room on the grounds that he took a used bottle, it turned out that he took the victim's cellphone," he said.

Yos said the suspect Benny Manurung was charged with Article 362 from the Criminal Code.

"The position and background of the suspect who committed the crime of theft was due to economic pressure to meet his daily needs, and led to peace," he said.

The process of implementing the peace was witnessed by families, community leaders, religious leaders, and facilitated by each Kajari and accompanied by prosecutors who handled the case.

For this reason, based on Perja No. 15 of 2020 concerning termination of prosecution with a restorative justice approach, it means that among the suspects and victims there is no longer revenge and has opened a legal space for the perpetrators and victims to jointly formulate the resolution of the problem for the restoration of the situation to its original state.

"With this peace, between the suspect and the victim there are no more barriers that leave a sense of revenge," said Yos.
