JAKARTA - The special team (timsus) of the National Police has scheduled an initial examination of Putri Candrawathi as a suspect in the murder case of Brigadier Yosua Hutabarat or Brigadier J. It is planned that the wife of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo will give a statement this week.

"The information is like that from the fingerprint team (Putri Candrawathi was examined this week, ed)," said Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo to VOI, Monday, August 22.

However, Inspector General Dedi could not confirm the date of the examination of Putri. The reason is that the matter is still waiting from the team of investigators from the Timsus.

"It's time to wait for further information," said Dedi.

Putri Candrawathi has been named a suspect in the murder case of Brigadier Yosua Hutabarat or Brigadier J. However, the wife of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo has not been arrested and detained.

The reason for not being detained and arrested is because during the examination process Putri Candrawati had included a sick letter and asked for time to recover her condition for seven days.

"Ms PC should have been checked yesterday, but because there was a sick letter, she was held," he said.

Therefore, investigators will continue to coordinate with the team of doctors to later make arrests and detentions.

"We will continue to coordinate with doctors," said Irwasum Komjen Agung Budi Maryoto.

Apart from Putri, there are four other people who are also named as suspects. They included Inspector General Ferdy Sambo, Bharada Richard Eliezer, Bripka Ricky Rizal, and Strong Maruf.

The suspects were charged with Article 340 subsidiary Article 338 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) and Article 56 of the Criminal Code.
