JAKARTA - Teddy Minahasa's attorney, Hotman Paris, found a number of irregularities in drug cases. This began when Hotman asked the two witnesses regarding the existence of evidence of methamphetamine weighing 1 kg from 5 kg which had never been confiscated as evidence in a trial that was being sealed at the West Jakarta District Court, Thursday, February 24. The two witnesses were former Kalibaru Police Chief Kompol Kasranto and Syamsul Ma'arif, confidants of AKBP Dody Prawiranegara, former Bukittinggi Police Chief. "If there is a drug case, there must be evidence, the first 1 kg of it you also know that it has never been confiscated and has never been evidence?" asked Hotman to the second witness Syamsul Ma'arif. Responding to this, Kasranto and Syamsul Ma'arif confirmed that the 1 kg of methamphetamine evidence was never confiscated and never existed as evidence. "That's right," replied Syamsul Ma'arif. "Nothing as far as I know there is none," answered the former Kalibaru police chief. Hotman Paris then showed the digital forensic results of the Polda Metro Jaya regarding the contents of WhatsApp chat between Syamsul Ma'arif and AKBP Dody Prawiranegara. In the chat, Dody sent a message from Teddy Minahasa to Syamsul Ma'arif which contained that all drugs should be destroyed. However, in the BAP it was revealed that the drugs were not destroyed but sold. Hotman revealed in BAP Syamsul Ma'arif on October 13, 2022, that the sales initiative was from Doddy. Meanwhile, in BAP Doddy called it Arif's initiative (Syamsul Ma'arif). "Then on October 3, 2022 I was ordered by brother Dody to hand over 2 plastic packages to Linda. Meanwhile, in his BAP, Dody, on November 19, 2022, that the delivery of the goods was an initiative of Arif (Syamsul Ma’arif). "How come I was told to destroy it on September 24, 2022 (by Teddy Minahasa) why is it still being sold on October 3, 2022, why is that?" asked Hotman. Hotman then suspected that it was not Teddy Minahasa but Dody Prawiranegara who did the drug business. This departs from the digital forensic record that recorded the conversation between Doddy and Syamsul Ma'arif to continue making transactions so that they can be used for promotion. "Are you not suspicious that the money was used to take care of Kombes such as chat sodara, here saying 'liquid, use the money to take care of your promotion (Dody) from AKBP to be promoted to Kombes. Are you not suspicious that the money was used by Doddy to take care of promotions, and not handed over to Teddy Minahasa," said Hotman.
