Judge Rejects Execution Defendant Hits Run In Penjaringan, Victim's Child Asks Defendant To Be Detained

The panel of judges at the North Jakarta District Court rejected the exception of the defendant in the hit-and-run case Ivon Setia Anggara (65) on Thursday, August 21, 2025.

"The judge rejected the exception and the trial continued in two weeks with the agenda of examining witnesses," said victim S's son, Haposan after the trial.

Haposan assessed that the judge had made the right decision by rejecting the exception submitted by the defendant for strange and baseless reasons.

"This decision is a relief and hopes that we will get justice soon," he said.

He hopes that the trial process will run quickly so that the victim gets justice for the actions of this perpetrator.

For your information, Ivon Setia Anggara, a defendant in a hit and run against victim S (82) to death in the Taman Grisenda Housing area, Kapuk Muara Village, Penjaringan District, North Jakarta, has not been detained until now.

Since the deadly accident occurred in May 2025, Ivon's detention has been suspended due to illness.

"Until today, the defendant is still free and not detained. Personally, I from my family also sent a letter to the court, to the head of the North Jakarta court, we also request while providing evidence that the defendant is actually in good health," said Haposan.

He also completed a number of attachments in the submitted letter. The victim's family should have the defendant immediately detained.

"Because the condition (of the defendant) did not match what he was suspended for. They suspended for reasons of illness, it turned out that we found conditions in the field, met at the market, where the condition was in good health. So I don't think it would be relevant if we weren't detained," he said.

By not detaining the defendant Ivon Setia Anggara, the victim's family felt unfair about the existing legal process.

"My parents have died, while they are still free until now. So we really hope that our letter will be taken into consideration for the panel of judges, we ask the chairman of the Jakut District Court to see this case so that the detention (of the defendant) is immediately carried out," he said.

"Please give us justice to immediately detain the detention center," added Haposan.

Previously, it was reported that the Public Prosecutor (JPU) of the North Jakarta District Court rejected the exception filed by the legal adviser for the defendant in the hit-and-run case with the initials IVA (65) on Thursday, August 14, 2025.

"The exception was completely rejected, the examination was continued," said Public Prosecutor Rakhmat at the North Jakarta District Court.

The first exception proposed by IVA through his attorney was to reject the indictment submitted by the prosecutor because it was deemed not to have formal requirements in accordance with Article 143 of the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP).

The second exception proposed by IVA was to refute the prosecutor's indictment which considered him to have carried out a hit-and-run which resulted in death.

The defendant IVA considered that the accident was an accident. Rakhmat firmly stated that the two exceptions could not change the charges for the IVA.
