Meanwhile, Pegi Setiawan's attorney, Insank Nasaruddin, asked the West Java Regional Police if they had evidence of determining Pegi as a suspect, they must be tested immediately at trial.

"But there must be relevant evidence. This means that the two pieces of evidence must be valid, meaning that if they are not valid, then the only way to free Pegi Setiawan," said Insank.
