KENDARI - An honorary teacher Supriyani withdrew a peace statement in the case of alleged mistreatment of students with the initials MCD (6) at SDN 4 Baito, South Konawe Regency.

The revocation was not long after Supriyani's peace agreement with the victim's mother at the South Konawe Regent's Office on Tuesday, November 5.

The sudden peace statement, through the mediation of the South Sumatra Regent, Surunuddin Dangga, was in the middle of an ongoing case at the Andolo District Court. Supriyani's attorney, Andri Darmawan, admitted that he did not know about the agreement.

"There was no coordination at all, even my client did not know at all, suddenly he met the victim and was directed to sign a peace agreement," Andri said in his statement, Thursday, November 7.

It is known that Supriyani met the Regent of South KonsEL accompanied by the chairman of the LBH of the Indonesian Young Advocates Association (HAMI) Konsel, Samsuddin. Andri explained, from Samsuddin's coordination at that time, the Regent invited Supriyani just to tell about the case she was undergoing.

Meanwhile, Samsuddin, who accompanied Supriyani, in the meeting was removed from the position of chairman of the LBH-HAMI Konsel on the same day when the peace statement was circulating. The removal, said Andri, was in the aftermath of actions outside his coordination with LBH and participating in bringing Supriyani together with the victim's parents.

Andri Darmawan emphasized that Supriyani's honorary teacher case would continue and would not make peace other than through the judicial process.

That, in the peace letter there are points that state not to bring up or no longer question the legal process.

"Meanwhile, we are still in the legal process so that Mrs. Supriyani withdrew the peace letter and at the signing she did not understand the agreement letter," he said.

Head of the South Konawe Kominfo Agency, Anas Mas'ud, said that the peace statement was an initiative of the local government to reduce problems that were happening in the people of South Konawe.

Regarding one of the points in the peace agreement which said not to bring up the ongoing legal process at the Andolo District Court.

"I cannot comment on the content of the material, I only convey the good intentions of the regent to reconcile the parties," he said.
