Rizieq Was Called Habib By The Judge So The Prosecutor's Reason For Appeal, Lawyers: Don't Be Arrogant And Crazy Respect

JAKARTA - Rizieq Shihab's legal team highlighted the appeal memory of the Public Prosecutor (JPU) in the case that ensnared his client. One of the reasons why the prosecutor appealed was because the judge called Rizieq as a Habib.

Reaffirming this matter, Azis confirmed that the prosecutor's memorandum of appeal contained a prosecutor who did not accept that his client was summoned by Habib.

"It's true, that (the prosecutor's reason) is in the memorandum of an appeal", said Rizieq Shihab's attorney, Aziz Yanuar to VOI, Sunday, July 4.

In that memory, the prosecutor considered the panel of judges, not objective. This is because the panel of judges was deemed to have accommodated all the wishes of Rizieq and his legal team from the start.

According to Aziz, the prosecutor should not have acted like that. The existence of this point shows that the prosecutors really want to be respected.

"Don't even think about being arrogant, let alone being arrogant and respectful", said Aziz.

Therefore, the prosecutor was also asked to change his attitude. Because, as a state apparatus, the prosecutor must set an example for the community.

"That must be changed in this republic, arrogance based on stupidity. State servants are paid and paid by the people. It's very inappropriate to be arrogant and pretentious and snobby", said Aziz.

Previously, the Public Prosecutor and Rizieq Shihab Kompok stated that they rejected the decision of the panel of judges which imposed a prison sentence of four years for the case of the results of the swab test at the UMMI Hospital.

Rizieq rejected the decision based on several reasons. One of them is the testimony of a forensic expert witness from the team of Public Prosecutors who at the previous trial had denied his presence by Rizieq.

"There are several things that I cannot accept. Among them are prosecutors who present forensic experts even though at this court the forensic expert witnesses were never present. Second, I object to the panel of judges no longer using authentic results in the application of Article 14 paragraph (1) of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 1 of 1946", said Rizieq.
