JAKARTA - The National Police's Criminal Investigation Body has scheduled an investigation into Ferdinand Hutahaean in the alleged case of spreading hoaxes or blasphemy. In that examination, Ferdinand is still a witness.

"Obviously, investigators who plan to follow up will send a summons to FH's brother (Ferdinand Hutahaean, ed) to send a summons as a witness", said the Public Relations Division of the National Police, Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan, to reporters on Thursday, January 6.

However, regarding the time of the examination, Ramadhan could not confirm it.

"Regarding when, we have not received any information", said Ramadhan.

Ramadhan previously said the status of the case involving Ferdinand Hutahaean had been upgraded from investigation to investigation.

The increase in the status of this case, continued Ramadhan, was based on the results of the examination of 10 witnesses and experts. From the examination, investigators believe that a criminal offense has occurred.

Meanwhile, Ferdinand Hutahaean was reported on suspicion of spreading hoaxes or blasphemy to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. The report follows his tweet on his Twitter account @FerdinandHaean3 about 'Your God Is Weak'.

Ferdinand is suspected of violating Article 45 a paragraph 2 in conjunction with Article 28 paragraph 2, Law 11 of 2008 concerning ITE, and Article 14 paragraph 1 and paragraph 2 of the Criminal Code.
