JAKARTA - The lawyer for the family of Nopryansah Yosua Hutabarat alias Brigadier J, Kamaruddin Simanjuntak commented on the report made by Inspector General Ferdy Sambo's wife, Putri Chandrawati for alleged sexual harassment and threats against her client.

According to him, the reporting should be stopped handling. Because the reported party or Brigadier J has died.

"So it was reported at the South (Jakarta Police) by Putri's mother, she said the father. But if a dead person was reported, then according to Article 77 it is SP3. That will not work," Kamaruddin told reporters, Tuesday, August 2.

Originally, Article 77 of the Criminal Code concerning the right to demand the law was void (no longer valid) because the reported party or defendant had died. Moreover, people who have died cannot be held legally responsible.

"It will not work because the dead cannot be held accountable. Even the living are crazy and cannot be held accountable, let alone the dead," said Kamaruddin.

Currently, all reporting behind Brigadier J's case is handled by the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police. Including the report of the wife of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo. Originally, the report of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo's wife had been handled by Polda Metro Jaya.

The reason behind the withdrawal was so that all matters regarding Brigadier J were brought together. Thus, it is more efficient in the technical investigation.

"Yes, they are combined so that they are effective and efficient in managing fingerprints," said the Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo.

However, in the investigation, the case still involves investigators from the Metro Jaya Police and the South Jakarta Police.

Because, they are also members of the special team (timsus) formed by the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo.

"However, investigators from the Polda Metro Jaya, South Jakarta are still included in the Timsus fingerprint team," said Dedi.
