JAKARTA - The Military Audit from the Military Audit II-07 Jakarta, Major (Chk) Wasinton Marpaung, demanded three TNI soldiers in the alleged kidnapping and murder of a bank branch head (kacab) with the initials MIP (37) with a prison sentence of four to 12 years.
"In connection with this, we ask that the defendants in the alleged kidnapping and murder of a bank branch head (Kacab) in Jakarta with the initials MIP (37) be sentenced to the following," said Wasinton in the reading of the defendant's charges at the Military Court II-08 Jakarta, Monday, May 18, reported by ANTARA.
In the reading of the charges at the Military Court, the defendant, one Serka Mochamad Nasir, was sentenced to 12 years in prison, minus the period of detention he had already served.
The second defendant, Kopda Feri Herianto, was sentenced to 10 years in prison, minus the period of detention he had already served.
"Meanwhile, the third defendant, Serka Frengky Yaru, is sentenced to four years in prison," said Wasinton.
During the trial, the Military Audit Office said the motive for the defendants to commit the crime was to get money.
The aggravating factors for the defendants include the actions of the defendants not only violating criminal law, but also tarnishing the reputation of the TNI institution, especially the Kopassus unit where the defendants served.
"The actions of the defendants are contrary to the Sapta Marga, the 2nd oath of soldiers, and the 8th TNI Obligation," said Wasinton.
Then, the actions of the defendants damaged or tarnished the reputation of the TNI in the eyes of the public, especially the Kopassus unit where the defendants served.
The actions of the defendants were also considered to have caused deep suffering for the victim's family. Oditur said the victim's wife lost her husband, while the victim's children lost their father due to the actions of the defendants.
Another aggravating factor is that the defendants are said to have never apologized to the victim's wife or family during the trial process.
Oditur also assessed that the defendants prioritized the desire to get money rather than maintaining their honor as soldiers of the Indonesian Army.
However, there are a number of things that mitigate the charges against the defendants. The three are considered to regret their actions and have a history of being assigned to operations in conflict areas.
Serka Mochamad Nasir has been recorded four times for operational duties under the Papua Task Force, Kopda Feri Herianto has carried out operations in Poso and Papua twice, while Serka Frengky Yaru has been on duty for four operations in Papua.
For Serka Frengky Yaru, the Audit also considered a letter of request for clemency from the Head of Transportation Procurement of Kopassus with number B/81/V/2026 dated May 12, 2026.
The continuation of the hearing with the agenda of reading the charges in the case of alleged kidnapping and murder of a bank branch head (kacab) in Jakarta with the initials MIP (37) at the Jakarta Military Court II-08 today began at 14.50 WIB.
The trial was chaired by the Chief Judge, Colonel Chk Fredy Ferdian Isnartanto, Member Judge I, Rear Admiral (H) Desman Wijaya, Member Judge II, Lieutenant Colonel Chk Arif Rachman.
