Undergoing An Online Trial, Inspector General Napoleon Is Engrossed In Holding His Cellphone Until He Is Reprimanded By The Judge

JAKARTA - Inspector General Napoleon Bonaparte again made a scene during an online trial that took place on Thursday, March 17, at around 11.50 WIB.

The presence of Napoleon in the zoom room of the main courtroom of the South Jakarta District Court (PN) was requested by the public prosecutor (JPU).

During the trial preparation process, Napoleon was observed holding a mobile phone whose gaze was right in front of a zoom camera.

Napoleon was even seen conversing with a smile before finally being summoned by the Chief Justice of the South Jakarta District Court, Djuyamto.

At that time, Napoleon immediately rushed to put back his cellphone, and the trial continued with questions from the judge regarding Napoleon's health condition.

"Is Inspector General Napoleon well?", asked Chief Justice Djuyamto.

"Good health, Your Majesty", replied Napoleon.

It is known that Napoleon has the status of a defendant on an alleged violent crime against the convict of the blasphemy case Muhammad Kece.

Responding to the fact that one of his inmates was seen playing with a cellphone from prison, Head of Class I Cipinang, East Jakarta, Tonny Nainggolan, straightened this out.

Tony said that the cell phone used by Napoleon was a prison officer's cell phone, not his personal property.

"He (Napoleon) indeed used his cellphone during the trial to contact his lawyer", Tony said when confirmed by reporters, Thursday, March 17.

Napoleon, continued Tony, wanted to contact a lawyer on behalf of Ahmad Yani to make sure the trial had started or not.

"Because Mr. Yani took so long. Finally, I borrowed the officer's cellphone, Mr. Prayoga, to contact Mr. Yani's lawyer", said Tonny.

Tony emphasized that every inmate, including Napoleon, is prohibited from owning a personal cell phone in prison. This is also stated in Article 4 Letter J of the Minister of Law and Human Rights 6/2013 which reads: every prisoner or detainee is prohibited from owning, carrying, and/or using electronic devices, such as laptops or computers, cameras, recording devices, mobile phones, pagers, and the like.

"What is certain is that it is prohibited. But some cellphones are entrusted to them (officers), they can be used at any time", he said.
