JAKARTA - Handling cases of alleged illegal possession of firearms (senpi) with the suspect Dito Mahendra has entered the filing stage. Investigators coordinate with investigating prosecutors regarding formal and material completeness.

Director of General Crimes at Bareskrim Polri Brigadier General Djuhandhani Rahardjo Puro said coordination with the prosecutor was carried out after Dito Mahendra's case file was declared incomplete.

"Regarding the development of handling the DM problem, the ownership of DM weapons, we have sent the file to the Prosecutor's Office, then from the file that has been sent there is a P19 that must be fulfilled by investigators," said Djuhandhani to reporters quoted on Tuesday, October 31.

In the process of completing the case files, investigators are said to have to examine several more witnesses. The goal is to make light of the origin of the senpi found at Dito Mahendra's residence.

"There were additional requests for examination related to several witnesses regarding the origin of the weapons," he said.

On the other hand, Djuhandhani explained the reason for the Dito Mahendra case which seemed to be 'drowned' after the arrest process. According to him, the handling is still ongoing, it's just that investigators focus on filing so that the case can be immediately transferred and entered the trial stage.

"The investigation is currently underway. So the case does not just disappear, no. Because we have detained the suspect. We will still be legally responsible for what we have done," said Djuhandhani.

As a reminder, Dito Mahendra had a fugitive status before being arrested in Bali on September 8. Dito is a suspect in the alleged possession of 9 illegal rifles.

Meanwhile, the alleged illegal senpi belonging to Dito Mahendra included the Golock 17, Revolver S&W, the Clock 19 Zev pistol, and the Angstadt Arms pistol.

Then the Noveske Rifleworks, AK 101, the Heckler & Koch G36 rifle, the Heckler & Koch MP5 pistol, and the Walther air rifle.

In this case, Dito Mahendra was charged with Article 1 paragraph (1) of Law Number 12 of 1951. Thus, it is threatened with life imprisonment or 20 years.
