JAKARTA David's legal team said that the family had closed communication with Mario Dandy Satrio's family, the son of Rafael Alun Trisambodo, a South Jakarta Tax Directorate General who had persecuted David.

Mario Dandy's efforts were made to communicate with David's parents, in addition to apologizing for efforts to take a peaceful path. However, until now the case of persecution by Mario Dandy is still ongoing at the South Jakarta Police. There is no restorative justice.

For now, the perpetrator's family is no longer coming to communicate. Even we closed the communication. " said Syahwan, David's legal team when interviewed, Friday, February 24.

The existence of compensation efforts as a peaceful step, Syahwan said that from the LBH GP Ansor had never thought before.

From LBH GP Ansor didn't think about it. Because the family doesn't even give room for things like that to happen." he said.

The closure of communication between each party concerned, Mario's family and David's family, as Syahwan said, means that there is no room for restorative justice.

Meanwhile, Chairman of the Indonesian Law Enforcement Consortium (KOPHI) Rudy Marjono said that restorative justice is a form of legal choice instrument that can be used by law enforcement institutions as long as it is desired and accepted by parties involved in the legal incident.

"In principle, the objective of law enforcement is so that the community obtains value of benefit, justice and legal certainty against a legal event that occurs. Meanwhile, the problem of restoring justice is a form of legal choice instrument that can be used by law enforcement institutions as long as it is desired and accepted by parties involved in the legal incident," explained Rudy Marjono to VOI, Friday, February 24.

According to Rudy, restorative justice is a form of completion of law enforcement but with a note that it is not under pressure.

The restoration justice step chosen by justisiables as a form of completion of law enforcement is automatically achieved. Both in terms of its benefits, justice and legal certainty. With a note in the application of Restoration Justice, of course it is not justified to be carried out under the influence of suppression or coercion. Because the principle of restoration of justice itself must be with mutual agreement between the two parties. So on the contrary, if there is no agreement on justice restoration will never happen. "Obviously Rudy.

"For cases of persecution that are threatened with severe crime, restorative justice is most likely rare, especially when it creates broad public attention and attention," he concluded.
