Dasco emphasized that the ratification of the Criminal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code had passed through various stages, including receiving input from the community.
"I think, the Criminal Code that was enacted in the previous government era, and also the Criminal Procedure Code that was enacted some time ago. In the DPR, of course, it has passed the stages that I think meet the requirements for making laws. "said Dasco at the DPR building, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday, January 6.
"It has been a long time that the discussion of the KUHAP is in terms of accepting public participation," he continued.
Dasco understands that there are pros and cons in the community regarding the Criminal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code that were passed by the DPR and the government. However, he also regretted that there were criticisms that did not match the facts.
