Wiranto Is Also Entitled To A Compensation Of Rp.65,232,157

JAKARTA - The Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) has applied for compensation for the former Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Wiranto for the stabbing and assault of suspected terrorist Syahrial Alamsyah alias Abu Rara.

Deputy Chairman of LPSK RI, Maneger Nasution, explained that compensation is compensation provided by the state because the perpetrator is unable to provide full compensation.

The compensation proposed is Rp.65,232,157. Apart from Wiranto, compensation will also be given to Wiranto's aide who is also a victim, namely Fuad Syauqi.

"Compensation is indeed the right for victims of criminal acts of terrorism. So, the state is obliged to attend for the benefit of the victims in the form of providing compensation or compensation to the victims," said Maneger in his statement, Friday, April 10.

Actually, said Maneger, it was not Wiranto who asked for compensation to the state. However, Maneger said that his party felt obliged to facilitate obtaining compensation. This is because Wiranto is a victim of a criminal act of terrorism.

"So, in the law even if the victim does not file, the LPSK is obliged to submit to the state so that the person concerned gets compensation," said Maneger.

Meanwhile, for victims of terrorism who wish to apply for compensation, the application sent to the LPSK must be accompanied by evidence in the form of a statement from the police, namely Densus and BNPT. However, for the stabbing case of Wiranto, the statement from the police was strong enough that the incident was an act of terrorism.

So far, the process of submitting compensation to Wiranto has been brought to court. If the court ruled, Wiranto has the right to receive it.

"After the court ruled, compensation could be delivered. Even though the judge found the perpetrator to be guilty but did not give compensation, it depends on the judge," he said.

Stabbing
