JAKARTA - The reported case of alleged defamation, Haris Azhar, stated that his absence from the two mediation processes was exaggerated. In fact, the reporting party, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, was also absent several times.
"I didn't come once, the megaphone was too big. But when other people didn't come, during the mediation process, he didn't come twice, we just relaxed," Haris told reporters, Monday, November 22.
"This is in my opinion, there is no need to overdo it, there is no need to assume that my mediation process did not come, I did not come but I have already informed the police," continued Haris.
In fact, his absence from the previous mediation process, said Haris, had been notified to investigators. The reason is because Fatia Maulidianty, who was also reported, could not fulfill the mediation process.
"Why didn't I come, because Fatia was in advance on the day of the mediation invitation, there was an agenda. So, Fatia didn't come, I didn't come, because we were both reported," said Haris.
His absence should not be exaggerated. In fact, if the problem must be resolved in the trial process, Haris is ready to face it.
"So, in my opinion, it's as simple as that. If you ask me if I'm ready to go to court, God willing, I'll be ready wherever I go," said Haris.
For information, the mediation process for both parties is scheduled for October 21. However, the two parties failed to meet. The reason was that at that time the police had an official schedule.
Thus, the mediation process was postponed until November 1. However, on that occasion Luhut could not attend the mediation process on the grounds that he was in Italy accompanying President Joko Widodo in the activities of the G20 Summit.
Therefore, the police rescheduled again on November 15. However, this time it was Haris Azhar and Fatia who were not present. The reason for their absence is not clear.
