JAKARTA - The prosecutor did not find a reason for forgiveness and a justification for the defendant Richard totaling alias Bharada E in the premeditated murder case of Yosua alias Brigadier J. Richard totaling was sentenced to 12 years in prison.

"In the trial, no one was found in the defendant who was able to remove the elements of criminal error, both for forgiveness and the just, against the primary indictment that we proved in the juridical analysis, thus the defendant must be convicted," said the prosecutor at the trial at the South Jakarta District Court, Wednesday, January 18.

"There is no reason for forgiveness and the just against the charges that we have examined, so the defendant must be punished," he continued.

Based on the evidentiary process during the trial, it was found that there was a connection between Bharada E and other defendants. In particular, about the intention to kill Brigadier J.

"There was a connection between Richard totaling and witness Ferdy Sambo, witness Putri Candrawathi, witness Ricky Rizal Wibowo, Strong witness Ma'ruf, namely the intention to kill Nopriansyah Yosua Hutabarat's life as a regional minister," said the prosecutor.

The prosecutor considers Bharada E proven to have participated in the series of premeditated murder of Yosua alias Brigadier J. So, he was sentenced to imprisonment for 12 years.

"Demanding to impose a sentence on Richard totaling 12 years of reduced detention," said the prosecutor.

In the charge, there were several burdensome considerations. One of them Bharada E is the executor in the premeditated murder case of Brigadier J.

However, there are also mitigating considerations. The prosecutor considers Bharada E to be a justice collaborator from the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK).

"The defendant is the defendant's witness who helped dismantle this case," said the prosecutor.

Bharada E was charged with shooting Brigadier J with a GUARD-17 firearm three to four times. The shooting was carried out at the official residence of the Police Complex, Duren Tiga, South Jakarta, on July 8.

Then, before the shooting, Bharada E also participated in the planning. This is because he agreed with Ferdy Sambo's order to execute Brigadier J.
