JAKARTA - The defense team for the defendant Arif Rachaman asked the panel of judges to acquit his client of all charges and demands of the public prosecutor (JPU). This is because the former Wakaden B Ropaminal of the Propam Division has a child who has a blood disorder or hemophilia and requires large medical expenses.

The condition of the child of the defendant Arif Rachman was conveyed by his attorney, Marcella Santoso, while reading the defense memorandum or plea at the trial at the South Jakarta District Court, Friday, February 3.

Initially, Marcella said that her client's detention had an impact on the family. Because Arif Rachman is the backbone of the family.

"Defendant Arif Rahman Arifin is the backbone of the family, so the decision in the aquo case will have a significant impact on his children and wife," said Marcella.

With this detention, Arif Rachman's wife and children had to depend on their parents and in-laws. In fact, it takes a lot of money to meet the needs of the family.

Apart from educational expenses, there must be money for the treatment of Arif Rachman's child. Because he has hemophilia.

"One of the children of the defendant Arif Rahman Arifin is in the process of being treated for a blood disease (Hemophilia type A) that he suffers from and requires a lot of money," she said.

On that basis, the panel of judges was asked to declare Arif Rachman innocent. Then, acquitted him of all charges and demands.

"Release the defendant Arif Rahman Arifin from all charges because the aquo trial should have applied the Una via principle," said Marcella.

Arif Rachman Arifin is one of the defendants in the obstruction of justice case. He is considered to have been proven involved because he destroyed a laptop containing a copy of the CCTV recordings of the moments of Brigadier J's death.

He is considered to have violated Article 49 in conjunction with Article 33 of Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning amendments to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) to 1 of the Criminal Code.

Thus, Arif was charged with imprisonment for 1 year and a fine of IDR 10 million.
