JAKARTA - The family's attorney said indications of torture behind the bloody incident that killed Nopryansah Yosua Hutabarat alias Brigadier J are getting stronger. Because, it was found that Brigadier J's fingernail fell off.

The statement was conveyed by the attorney for Brigadier J's family, Kamaruddin Simanjuntak after the process of holding the case with the team from the Directorate of General Crimes at the National Police Criminal Investigation Unit was completed.

"Then his fingernails were removed, so we estimate that he was still alive when he was pulled out, so there was torture," Kamaruddin told reporters, Thursday, July 21, early in the morning.

Apart from the loose fingernails, the suspicion of torture was also confirmed by the snare marks on Brigadier J's neck. Then, there were also wounds on the body's hands and several other body parts.

"There was a rope tied around the neck, it was suspected that there was an incision on the back, there was an incision on the nose until it was stitched, under the eye there were several cuts, then on the shoulder there was this crushed damage," he said.

In fact, it is said, almost all of Brigadier J's fingers were broken. So by referring to this, the family believes that there was an act of torture behind the death of Brigadier J at the shelter of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo.

Then, urge or request that the Police conduct a re-autopsy. It is hoped that all the handling of this case will be transparent.

"Then until all of this broke his finger, so why not take it off just because his skin was crushed," said Kamaruddin.

Previously, Brigadier J's family asked the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo to form an independent team. The goal is to re-do the autopsy process by involving parties outside the Police.

The reason behind this request is because the family does not believe the autopsy results that have been presented by the Police.

"We ask the National Police Chief to form an independent team that involves other doctors," said Kamaruddin.
