JAKARTA - The defendant in the obstruction of justice case or the obstruction case to the investigation of the death of Yosua alias Brigadier J, AKP Irfan Widyanto hopes that the panel of judges will impose acquittal. This is because he is an honest member of the National Police and helps dismantle the scenario of Ferdy Sambo. "In our opinion, referring to the facts of the trial, our client should have received acquittal," said Irfan Widyanto's legal adviser, Riphat Senikentara, to reporters, Tuesday, February 21. During the trial process, Riphat said there were several things that could be taken into consideration by the panel of judges. For example, his client received orders to replace the CCTV DVR around Ferdy Sambo's official residence at the Police Complex, Duren Tiga, South Jakarta. "The facts of the trial have clearly been seen that Irfan can order to replace the CCTV DVR and coordinate to hand it over to investigators from the South Jakarta Police in order to collect evidence, keep in mind that this is with the approval of the Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the South Jakarta Police," he said. The defendant Irfan Widyanto also did not know about the continuation of the CCTV DVR after being given to investigators at the Jakarta Metro Police. Including, not knowing if the CCTV DVR was handed over to Chuck Putranto on the orders of the former Head of the Propam Police Division Ferdy Sambo. "Irfan didn't know anything after the CCTV DVR was handed over to the South Jakarta Police. It turned out that without Irfan's knowledge, the South Jakarta DVR CCTV Police, which could be used as evidence, was issued and handed over to other people, on FS's orders," said Riphat. In fact, Irfan Widyanto was also claimed not at all if the CCTV DVR contained a recording that showed Brigadier J was still alive when Ferdy Sambo arrived. Because, in the series of incidents, he was only ordered to secure the CCTV for evidence to the South Jakarta Police. "After July 9, Irfan didn't know anything, he didn't know the contents of the recording. There was neither communication nor any plans that Irfan knew about the CCTV DVR," he said. "It's the same as I ordered my employees to buy a knife, my knife was used to steal people. Yes, my employee didn't know anything, he wanted to be punished," continued Riphat. Furthermore, Riphat also claimed that his client was the first person to reveal the facts about CCTV around Ferdy Sambo's official residence to the leadership of the Police. At that time, he conveyed the facts about ordering him to take the CCTV DVR on July 21, 2022. To be precise, 3 days after Brigadier J's family lawyer made a police report (LP) related to premeditated murder. "That Irfan was the first to honestly tell the police leadership, if I'm not mistaken, he started to be honest and reveal the real facts on August 8, 2022, while Irfan has conveyed the real facts to the police leadership since July 21, 2022," he explained. Thus, his client's honesty should also be appreciated by Bharada E by the panel of judges. This is because Irfan Widyanto is the entrance to uncovering the scenario of Ferdy Sambo's premeditated murder. "So when it comes to honesty, it means that Irfan is more honest, before any pressure, Irfan has immediately conveyed what he is to the leadership of the National Police. Both myself and Irfan, neither of them have been in the code of ethics trial. I think this is a form of objectivity of the National Police institution, yes, waiting for criminal legal certainty, before deciding the fate of its members in the professional code of ethics trial," said Riphat. For information, in this case, Irfan Widyanto is suspected of violating 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. Thus, the prosecutor charged him with imprisonment for one year. Meanwhile, Irfan Widyanto will undergo a trial for the verdict or verdict on Friday, February 24, next.
