Bharada E Cancels Transferred To Salemba Prison, Easier Protection And Supervision

YOGYAKARTA - Richard Totaling Aka Bharada E was canceled in Salemba Prison, East Jakarta. The convict in the murder case of Brigadier J was returned to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. What is the reason why Bharada E was canceled from being transferred to the Salemba Prison?

The decision to transfer Bharada E to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police was made after Bharada E underwent data collection on Monday, February 27. While in Salemba Prison, Bharada E underwent a series of activities, ranging from registration, data collection, to health checks and assessments by the PK of the North East Jakarta Penitentiary.

Rika Aprianti, Head of the Public Relations Section of the Protocol of the Directorate of Corrections at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, revealed the reason why Bharada E was placed back in the Criminal Investigation Unit.

Rika said that Bharada E was canceled in Salemba Prison for security reasons. The decision was taken on the recommendation of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK).

"Based on LPSK's recommendations with security considerations, Richard Totaling then carried out the crime at the Criminal Investigation Prison. With safety considerations," said Rika at the Salemba Class IIA Prison.

Rika said that her party was actually ready to place Bharada E in the Salemba Prison. However, his party also respects the input from the LPSK which has submitted it to the Director General of PAS and the position of the Head of the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights DKI. For security considerations, the convict was finally detained at the Bareskrim Detention Center.

Susilaningtyas, Chairman of LPSK, said that his party recommended that Bharada E be transferred to the Criminal Investigation Unit due to considerations for safety factors. Protection and supervision of convicts will be easier when languishing in the Criminal Investigation Unit, the number of residents in the Salemba Prison is higher.

"We minimize the risk of threats. It is safer and easier to provide protection in smaller locations and more limited residents than in wider locations and more residents," said Susi when confirmed by the media crew on Tuesday, February 28.

Susi also said that threats against Bharada E could arise at any time. To avoid this, an anticipatory step is needed. In addition, the transfer of Bharada E to the Criminal Investigation Unit is also considered to bring the convict closer to his original agency.

"The placement at the Bareskrim detention center also brought Richard closer to his Polri corps as preparation for later he will be on duty again," said Susi.

Previously, Bharada E was secretly transferred from the Criminal Investigation Unit to the Salemba Prison on Monday afternoon. The action was taken after the Prosecutor's Office and the convict both received a verdict from the Panel of Judges.

The Jakarta District Court sentenced Richard Total with a prison sentence of 1 year and 6 months for the premeditated murder of Nofriansyah Yosua Hutabarat.

The decision was given by the Panel of Judges taking into account the aggravating and mitigating criminal sentences against Bharada E. What aggravated the verdict was that the relationship with Brigadier J was not considered by the convict so that in the end the victim died.

Meanwhile, there are several things that ease the verdict of the convict. A number of mitigating factors, namely Bharada E as a witness to the perpetrator who worked together, was polite during the trial, had never been convicted, was still young and was expected to improve his actions.

In addition, another thing that eased the verdict was that the defendant regretted his actions and promised not to repeat it again. The victim's family has also forgiven the actions of Bharada E. Bharada E is also a justice collaborator for the witness of the perpetrator who worked together to reveal the clarity of the case.

That is the review of the reason why Bharada E was canceled to be transferred to the Salemba Prison. Bharada E's decision was returned to the Criminal Investigation Unit because of the consideration of security factors. So far there has been no real threat to the convict. By being detained in the Criminal Investigation Unit, protection and supervision will be easier.
