Apart From 3 Judges, The Attorney General's Office Arrests Lawyers In Ronald Tannur's Free Verdict Bribery Case

The Attorney General's Office (AGO) has not only arrested three judges at the East Java District Court regarding the alleged bribery of Gregorius Ronald Tannur's acquittal. A lawyer was also arrested.

"That's right (one lawyer was also arrested)," said Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) at the AGO, Febrie Ardiansyah, to VOI, Wednesday, October 23.

However, it was not conveyed in detail about his identity or role. However, it is suspected that the lawyer was the bribe who facilitated the occurrence of bribery and gratification.

So far, it is only known that the three judges arrested were Erintuah Damanik, Mangapul, and Heru Hanindyo. They were the panel of judges who acquitted Ronald Tannur.

"Yes (the arrest of three judges related to the bribery of Ronald Tannur's verdict)," said Febrie.

In the trial of the alleged murder of Dini Sera Afriyanti, the panel of judges chaired by Erintuah Damanik stated that Ronald Tannur was not legally and convincingly proven to have committed murder or persecution that resulted in the death toll.

The judge also considered that the defendant was still trying to help the victim at a critical time as evidenced by the defendant's efforts to take the victim to the hospital for help.

"Freeing the defendant from all charges by the public prosecutor above," said Judge Damanik.
