JAKARTA - The controversy over the naming of a suspect against Hogi Minaya, the husband who chased his wife's mugger to death in Sleman, is now entering a new phase through restorative justice efforts.

Even though the GPS device on Hogi's feet has been removed, this case has triggered harsh criticism from Commission III of the Indonesian House of Representatives to the famous lawyer Hotman Paris regarding the limits of self-defense for crime victims.

Kompolnas reminded, don't let this case make the community afraid to pursue perpetrators of crimes because they are afraid of being blamed if the perpetrators are unlucky.

It is known that similar cases have often occurred. In November 2025, a man in Asahan, North Sumatra was named a suspect while trying to defend himself.

In 2023, it was also viral, the animal guard who killed his goat thief was made a suspect.

In 2022, the NTB Police also briefly named the victim of the robbery as a suspect after defending himself.
