JAKARTA - The continuation of the case of alleged drug trafficking in the prison that ensnared Ammar Zoni at the Central Jakarta District Court (PN) was hot, Thursday, December 18.
The actor made a shocking statement in front of the panel of judges, ranging from allegations of torture in the form of beatings to allegations of extortion by a police officer of Rp300 million.
The moment of tension began when Ammar Zoni questioned a witness from the police regarding the interrogation process. Ammar denied the witness's claim that there was no violence during the taking of the Report of the Examination (BAP).
In a high tone, Ammar reminded the witnesses that they were under oath. He admitted that he and the other four defendants had experienced severe physical intimidation to admit ownership of the illegal goods.
"You swore, sir. We five can testify. Is there no arrest? No beating? No pressure?" said Ammar during the trial, Thursday, December 18.
Ammar emphasized that the confession video played by the Public Prosecutor (JPU) at the trial was the result of pressure. To prove his words, he asked the panel of judges to present the CCTV footage of the detention center dated January 3.
Not stopping at the issue of violence, Ammar Zoni also made a shocking confession about alleged extortion. He asked the witness explicitly about the request for hundreds of millions of rupiah from the Kanit of the Cempaka Putih Police.
"Do you know that from the Cempaka Putih Police, Kanit, asked us to prepare a fund of 300 million?" asked Ammar.
Hearing the question, the police witness answered briefly, "I don't know." A similar answer was also given by another police witness.
During the trial, Ammar also questioned the existence of physical evidence of 100 grams of methamphetamine that was alleged against him in the indictment. He urged the JPU and witnesses to show the evidence if it existed.
"I don't know," said the police witness, admitting that the physical evidence weighing 100 grams was no longer there because it had been resold inside the cell, but they argued that they had evidence in the form of a video of Ammar Zoni's confession.
"So the goods that are 100 grams are not there, yes," Ammar concluded.
"I don't know," said Rivaldi, who admitted that he had never seen the alleged form of methamphetamine divided into two (50 grams). He was forced to admit during interrogation because he could not withstand the pressure.
"I was really depressed at that time. I have to admit Your Majesty, I was really depressed," said Rivaldi.
