KUDUS - Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkum HAM) Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej ensured that inmates (prisoners) remissions have standard operating procedures and are closely monitored.

"If there is information on the alleged remission of being traded, of course it is still only an assumption," he said after a working visit at the Class II B Kudus State Detention Center, Central Java, Thursday, August 4.

In fact, he said, everyone in the market can guess.

Regarding the deactivation of one of the prison heads who was suspected of being related to the sale and purchase of remissions, the Ministry of Law and Human Rights itself is still following up and exploring it.

While his visit to the Kudus Rutan, he said, was to see firsthand the services at this prison.

"It turns out that the service at the Kudus Rutan is quite good and everything is going well," he said.

The Head of Class II B detention center Kudus Suprihadi revealed that the Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights saw firsthand the condition of the inmates' housing blocks, kitchen rooms, clinics, halls and

the work of the officers.

"We always provide the best service for the community," he said.

Regarding the housing capacity, he said, it is still considered feasible because of the capacity of 104 people, 150 prisoners are now inhabited

Coinciding with the Independence Day of the Republic of Indonesia, Rutan Kudus proposed that 90 inmates receive general remission to the Regional Office (Kanwil) of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham) Central Java.
