JAKARTA - Rizieq Shihab's son-in-law, Muhammad Hanif Alatas has been released from prison after serving his sentence for spreading false news from the UMMI Hospital swab. In this case he was sentenced to one year in prison.

"That's right (free, ed)," said Hanif Alatas' lawyer, Ichwan Tuankota, to VOI, Tuesday, January 25.

Hanif Alatas is free on Tuesday, January 25. Rizieq's son-in-law is said to be free after being detained since February 2021.

In addition, continued Ichwan, after his client was free, he went straight to the Islamic Markaz Islamic Boarding School in Megamendung Bogor, West Java. However, the reason for Hanif's choosing to go directly to the location was not detailed.

"Since morning, he has been at the Islamic Markaz Islamic Boarding School," said Ichwan. Hanif Alatas was found guilty in the case of spreading false news about the results of the swab test at the UMMI Hospital. In that case, the East Jakarta District Court judges sentenced him to 1 year in prison.

Not satisfied with the verdict, Hanif Alatas also filed an appeal and cassation. However, at both stages the result obtained is still a 1 year prison sentence.
