JAKARTA - The follow-up trial of the defendant hit-and-run named Ivon Setia Anggara (65) for the victim S (82) who died in Penjaringan, North Jakarta, continues at the court of the North Jakarta District Court on Thursday, September 25, 2025.

Haposan, the victim's family S hopes that the panel of judges at the North Jakarta District Court (PN) can decide on a trial in the hit-and-run case conducted by the defendant Ivon Setia Anggara fairly.

"I hope that the panel of judges will be moved to decide the fairest, because the demands in the article are six years," said Haposan after the pledoi agenda hearing on Thursday, September 25, 2025.

Haposan assessed that the demands made by the Public Prosecutor (JPU) against the defendant were very unreasonable because all the facts of the trial, witness statements, CCTV footage clearly revealed the incident that claimed the lives of his parents.

"Hopefully the judge has a conscience to decide on the best and fairest. Because the demands are one year and six months and the current condition is that the defendant can still go anywhere and be healthy and be wal afiat and never be detained. That demand doesn't make sense," he said.

In addition, Haposan representing his family stated that he rejected the apology submitted by the defendant Ivon Setia Anggara before the panel of judges after his legal advisor read out the pledoi.

Haposan expressed that the apology submitted today was meaningless and he refused the request.

"It's been a number of months, until this point I just apologized," he said.

Haposan and his family demanded justice so that the perpetrator of the hit-and-run named Ivone was punished severely for his actions.

Because if they do not get justice, S's family who are victims of hit-and-run will complain to the Assistant Supervisory (Aswas) of the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati).

The complaint was made on the basis that the Public Prosecutor gave a light charge to the defendant Ivon Setia Anggara (65) at the North Jakarta District Court (PN).

Not only that, the victim's family will also complain to the Deputy Attorney General for Supervision (Jamwas) of the Attorney General's Office.

"We consider that the prosecutor's demands for one year and six months are not in line with the facts of the trial and the sense of justice," said Madsanih Manong, the attorney for the family of the victim Smak lari.

Madsanih assessed that from the beginning the legal process against this case had disappointed the victim's family.

Starting, from the police investigation stage, which only gave the status of city detention to Ivon Setia Anggara (65) until the prosecutor again gave city prisoners which ended with light demands to the defendant.

"All of that hurts the family," he said.

For these irregularities, the legal team together with the victim's family will formally complain about this to the Prosecutor's Supervision Division (Aswas) of the DKI Jakarta Attorney General's Office and the Deputy Attorney General for Supervision to ask for the formation of a special team that investigates the performance of the Public Prosecutor and his superiors who handle this case.

"We want internal supervision so that people do not lose confidence in law enforcement institutions," he said.
