LPSK Says There Is A Challenge To Protect Witnesses In The Vina Cirebon Case
JAKARTA - The Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) revealed that there was a challenge in protecting witnesses related to the murder case of Vina Dwi Arsita and Muhammad Rizky (Eky) that occurred in Cirebon, West Java.
"Of course there will be challenges," said Deputy Chairperson of the LPSK, Sri Suparyati when contacted, Monday, May 27.
Suparyati explained that the murder and rape incidents in Vina's case were relatively long. In addition, the number of perpetrators also increased as he was arrested by 1 on the wanted list (DPO) named Pegi Setiawan.
This, said Suparyati, caused there to be challenges related to witness protection in this case.
"Because it is certain that yesterday the perpetrators had been sentenced and then there were three other perpetrators. There was a DPO which then appeared one. This is a different dynamic," he said.

Nevertheless, LPSK opens all parties who want to ask for protection related to the Vina case. Later, LPSK will decide to grant or reject the request.
"We only inform you that it is necessary to provide protection, LPSK is ready to provide it, but of course with procedures and things that need to be fulfilled according to what LPSK has done," he said.
