JAKARTA - PSI politician Mohamad Guntur Romli or Gun Romli questioned the basis of Immanuel Ebenezer or Noel and Rocky Gerung who were witnesses to lighten the defendant Munarman's alleged terrorism crime case.
"The name of the witness is someone who has seen, heard, witnessed an incident. Munarman was charged with terrorism for treason and support for ISIS in 3 places!" said Gun Romli, quoted from CokroTV's YouTube account, Thursday, March 10. Gun Romli said that no one from Noel to Rocky was present at the ceremony. Their absence from the event made Gun Romli wonder about the status of Noel and Rocky's witnesses.
"Then what are they called witnesses? I remember the term Rocky Gerung often used. "Dumb". They can be called stupid witnesses," said Gun Romli.
The real stupidity, he said, could be seen in the excuses used by Noel in defending Munarman during the trial. "Noel said Munarman "my friend". This is very stupid," he added.
Gun Romli assesses that there is no relationship between the actions of someone who is the object of the law with friendship problems. He said that because Munarman is currently being tried for his actions, not because of Noel's friend.
"When it comes to friend Munarman and his network, I certainly have more confidence in Muannas Alaidid, the former Secretary of the Muslim Defenders Team (TPM) who is now a top lawyer, defender of the Republic of Indonesia who left their group," he said.
Gun Romli explained that Muannas has a track record of accompanying many people who are being tried on terrorism charges. It is noted that Muanas, who previously worked as a lawyer, was a lawyer for the alleged Bali bombings, the Marriot bombings, and accompanied Riziq Shihab when he had an argument with the Ahmadiyah group at the National Monument (Monas).
In these cases, Gun Romli said that Muannas was no longer an advocate who had an obligation to defend clients. Therefore, he said, Muannas decided to leave.
"Did Noel attend 3 events that Munarman attended when there was an oath? No," said Gun Romli.
