JAKARTA - The Coordinating Minister for Politics, Law and Security (Mankumham) Mahfud MD is pushing for a criminal process not in a restorative justice manner in resolving the abuse case committed by Mario Dandy Satriyo, son of the non-active Director General of Taxes (DJP) of the Ministry of Finance (Ministry of Finance) Rafael Alun Trisambodo.

"There is no conciliation or pardon in criminal law. For minor cases, there is indeed restorative justice. The abuse committed by this official's child must be prosecuted," said Mahfud in one of the uploads on his personal Twitter account, @mohmahfudmd.

Mahfud explained that resolving cases using restorative justice considers the weight of the case or not. Regarding Rafael Alun Trisambodo's child, Mahfud assessed that the case was not light so the process was legal.

Apart from that, Mahfud also suggested that the father of the perpetrator of the abuse, Rafael Alun Trisambodo, who held the position of Head of the General Section of the DJP South Jakarta Regional Office II, be deactivated, that an examination should be carried out.

"According to administrative law, officials who have children in hedonic and extravagant lifestyles must be investigated," said Mahfud.

Previously, Rafael Alun Trisambodo apologized for the case of abuse committed by his son. The apology was conveyed to the Nahdliyin family, including Jonathan Latumahina, David's father who is the GP Ansor Central Executive (PP).

"I am Rafael Alun Trisambodo, the parents of Mario Dandy, I apologize to David and the extended family of Mr. Jonathan, the large family of the Nahdlatul Ulama Board (PBNU), and the extended family of the Ansor Youth Movement (GP)," said Rafael via video on Thursday, February 23.
