JAKARTA - The defendant Baiquni Wibowo emphasized that he was not the closest person or loyalist to Ferdy Sambo. Although, he served under his leadership, namely in the Propam Division unit. Baiquni made this statement when reading the memorandum of defense or plea at the trial of the alleged obstruction of investigation or obstruction of justice case of the death of Yosua alias Brigadier J. According to Baiquni, his actions copied the CCTV DRR solely to help Chuck Putranto, who is his colleague at the police academy (Akpol). "Because I helped Chuck Putranto, many people thought, assumed, even constructed me as the closest person to Ferdy Sambo. So as a result of this assumption I was the third person to be tried by the code of ethics with a sentence of dishonorable dismissal (PTDH)," Baiquni said at the trial at the South Jakarta District Court, Friday, February 3. In fact, Baiquni emphasized that there was no closeness or even as a loyalist of Ferdy Sambo. The relationship is limited to superiors and subordinates because he serves as Head of Subdivision of Riksa Baggak Etika Rowabprof Divpropam Polri. "Which one in fact I don't personally know is Ferdy Sambo and I don't have a debt of gratitude to Ferdy Sambo, nor do I ever intend to plant a favor to Ferdy Sambo," he said. In addition, in his plea, Baiquni also admitted that he was afraid when he wanted to delete the CCTV footage which showed that Brigadier J's condition was still alive. So, he claimed to have backed up the CCTV data. The goal, if Ferdy Sambo's scenario is exposed, the recording can be used as evidence. "I have a sincere intention to help investigators by providing a copy of the CCTV footage even though I have to fight my fear of going against the power of a Propam Kadiv. But my intention to help actually got me to court today," he said. "My intention to help investigators actually made my entire family have to bear shame. This is the fact that my family is humiliated because I have good intentions," continued Baiquni. Therefore, Baiquni asked the panel of judges to decide fairly. Of course, hope to be declared innocent and released. "I believe whatever decision in this court is for the best for me and my family, because I believe we will all be in the courts of Allah in the end," Baiquni said. In this case, Baiquni Wibowo was charged with imprisonment for two years and a fine of Rp. 10 million. This is because his act of copying CCTV footage is considered to fulfill the elements of Article 49 in conjunction with Article 33 of Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning amendments to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) to 1 of the Criminal Code.
