Disappointment Arif Rachman, Notbela Hendra Kurniawan When Dismantling Ferdy Sambo's Lie
The defendant Arif Rachman Arifin said that his honesty regarding the cause of the death of Yosua alias Brigadier J was not appreciated by Hendra Kurniawan as Karo Paminal of the Propam Division at that time.The honesty began when Arif found out that the series of events where Brigadier J's death was conveyed by Ferdy Sambo was just a lie. Because, from the CCTV footage he saw there were different facts.At that time, Brigadier J seemed to be still alive when Ferdy Sambo arrived at the official residence of the Police Complex, Duren Tiga, South Jakarta.In fact, in the scenario it was stated that Brigadier J had died before the former Head of Propam Division arrived.So, Arif reported it to Hendra Kurniawan. The goal is to get support to report it to the leadership of the Police."I ask for Karopaminal's direction. I hope there will be direction and support to take a step, if at that time my superiors support and provide directions to immediately report to other high-ranking police officers or to other top officials to ask for protection and direction in order to reveal facts," said Arif Rachman at the trial at the South Jakarta District Court, Friday, February 3.However, Hendra actually brought it to Ferdy Sambo. So, in the meeting, Arif was asked to be silent about the fact."But what happened at that time was not as ideal as imagined, I was even faced with FS and instead asked to delete the files I watched."I don't get support from my direct superiors, instead I'm faced face-to-face," he said.Arif was silenced by Ferdy Sambo by threatening him. Thus, the former Deputy Head of B Ropaminal Division of the Propam Division was silent and followed orders to delete or destroy CCTV footage."But the position I have experienced is that my leader is a figure who does not guard. My leadership actually pulled me into a ravine by threatening to obey," said Arif.Arif Rachman Arifin is one of the defendants in the obstruction of justice case. He is considered proven to have been involved in destroying a laptop containing a copy of CCTV footage of the seconds of Brigadier J's death.He is considered to have violated Article 49 in conjunction with Article 33 of Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning amendments to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) to 1 of the Criminal Code.Thus, Arif was charged with imprisonment for 1 year and a fine of Rp. 10 million.
