SEMARANG - The cadets of the Marine Science Polytechnic (PIP) Semarang, Central Java, admitted that the practice of violence in physical development by seniors against their juniors still occurs even though outside the campus environment.

This was conveyed by Semarang PIP cadet Fathul Muin when he was asked for information in the trial of the death of cadet Zidan Muhammad Faza after being persecuted by five seniors at the Semarang District Court, Wednesday, March 16.

He also confirmed the tradition of physical coaching in the form of violence from seniors to juniors.

"Not just once. It has never been reported to PIP," he said in a trial chaired by Chief Justice Arkanu, reported by Antara.

However, he continued, the discipline with physical violence was carried out by senior cadets, not entirely.

"This coaching is also not revenging from seniors to juniors," he added.

Fathul also admitted that he had never reported the violence to the campus.

Similar testimony was also given by cadet Alfarez Arif Budiman who was also a witness in the case.

According to him, the beating of a senior against a junior was not carried out in an emotional state.

He also said that the school has made efforts to anticipate acts of violence outside the campus environment, for example by conducting periodic inspections of the students' dormitories.

In connection with the death of Zidan Muhammad Faza, the witnesses also admitted that the five convicts in this case beat the victim.

In addition, the five perpetrators also took the victim to the hospital for help even though he died.

Previously, it was reported that five PIP Semarang cadets were charged with molesting to death Zidan Muhammad Faza, their junior cadet at the government-owned educational institution.

The five defendants were Caecar Richardo Bintang Samudra Tampubolon, Aris Riyanto, Andre Arsprilla Arief, Albert Jonathan Ompusungu, and Budi Dharmawan.
