JAKARTA - Hasya Athallah's attorney, Gita Paulina from the University of Indonesia Alumni Association (ILUNI UI) appreciated the attitude of the Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Fadil Imran regarding the plan to reconstruct the accident case that killed University of Indonesia (UI) student Muhammad Hasya Atallah Syahputra.

However, Gita appreciates it more if the Police re-examine the case. However, Gita said, if the reconstruction was carried out only to strengthen the SP3, it would be in vain.

"We appreciate it if there is a reconstruction, but rather appreciate that this (case) must be re-examined," said Gita Paulina, Hasya's attorney at the Indonesian Ombudsman's Office, South Jakarta, Tuesday, January 31.

Gita said, if the reconstruction is only to strengthen SP3 for what (reconstruction) is done.

"If the reconstruction is only to strengthen SP3, I think it is only to legitimize. So we asked to be examined from the start," he said.

Previously, Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Fadil Imran stated that he would immediately reconstruct the case of an accident that killed University of Indonesia (UI) student Muhammad Hasya Atallah Saputra. Later, external parties will be involved.

"We plan to carry out reconstruction, involving all stakeholders with the aim of handling things that are running more transparently and objectively," Fadil Imran told reporters, Tuesday, January 31.

The reconstruction was aimed at finding the facts behind the accident. Moreover, there was a polemic because Hasya, who was a victim, was actually named a suspect. In fact, Eko Setia Budi Wahono, who was retired by the police, was Hasya's crasher.
