Putri Candrawathi Will Witness The Three Of Her Subordinates Today

JAKARTA - The follow-up trial of the alleged murder of Nopriansyah Yosua Hutabarat alias Brigadier J with the defendants Ma'ruf, Ricky Rizal or Bripka RR, Richard Karya alias Bharada E was held today. Candrawati's daughter will be presented as a witness.

"That's right, PC was presented as a witness," said Bharada E's legal adviser, Ronny Talapessy when confirmed, Monday, December 12.

Putri Candrawathi is also a defendant in the case. She is said to have known and helped her husband, Ferdy Sambo, kill Brigadier J.

Separately, the Public Relations of the South Jakarta District Court, Djuyamto, said that the trial would still be open to the public. This means that the panel of judges rejected the request of Putri Candrawati who asked for the trial to be held behind closed doors.

"The trial remains open to the public," said Djuyamto.

Originally, the request of the advisory team Putri Candrawathi was submitted on December 6. The reason was that the trial would discuss the alleged sexual harassment.

"We submitted a request to His Excellency the panel of judges and we followed up on December 6 regarding the request, so that the examination of Mrs. Putri as a witness and the defendant can be carried out in private, Your Majesty. Because it involves acts of sexual violence," said Putri Candrawati's legal adviser, Arman Hanis.

Bharada E, Bripka RR, and Strong Ma'ruf in this case were charged with helping and supporting Ferdy Sambo's plans.

Thus, they are strongly suspected of violating Article 340 of the Criminal Code, subsidiary to Article 338 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph 1 to (1) of the Criminal Code.
