JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Advocates Association (Peradin), Firman Wijaya, hopes that the handling of the Papua Governor's case, Lukas Enembe, will maintain conduciveness in Papua. "The handling of cases that befell the Governor of Papua, Lukas Enembe, still has to maintain conduciveness, with balance, not being allowed to enforce the law by leaving the principle of justice", he said in a discussion in Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Saturday, October 1. This was conveyed at the Human Studies Institute Public Discussion entitled Quo Vadis Law Enforcement as Development Instrument in Papua which was held in Jakarta, Friday, September 30. "The integrity of the Papuan people must be maintained, I believe the Papuan people have the same hope. That law enforcement is in the direction of welfare. I hope that the case against Governor Lukas will not interfere with Papua's development," explained Wijaya. He hopes that there will be a just law, where everyone is no exception, Enembe is also entitled to justice. So the balance of law and justice can be a portrait of law enforcement. Law enforcement should not result in or lead to unwanted events. In addition, he emphasized that if it is true that Enembe is sick, give him his right. "If Mr. Lukas Enembe is sick, then give him his rights and ensure his rights. But honesty is also the most important thing," he said. Meanwhile, the Executive Director of Human Studies Institute, Rasminto, assessed that law enforcement efforts against Enembe were an integral part of the agenda for eradicating corruption as a whole. Meanwhile, the resistance shown by Enembe supporters by blocking the road made efforts to accelerate the resolution of legal problems hampered. Furthermore, Rasminto explained, the determination of Enembe as a suspect in the alleged corruption case coincided with the announcement of the determination of the suspect against the Regent of Central Mamberamo, Ricky Ham Pagawak, and the Regent of Mimika, Eltinus Omaleng. "Only Eltinus, who was detained by the KPK on September 14, 2022. On the other hand, this determination is the pros and cons because the supporting group of regional heads, especially supporters of Papua Governor Lukas Enembe, blocked the law enforcement officers by setting barricades in front of Enembe's gate," he said. According to him, the handling of the Enembe case requires public supervision and participation. The public, he said, must clearly know the root of the case that entangles the Papuan figure.
