In the cassation decision, two judges of the Supreme Court (MA) have different opinions or expressed a dissenting opinion regarding the verdict of the former Head of the Propam Police Division Ferdy Sambo from the death penalty to life.

"There are two people who dissented opinions in the case of the defendant FS, namely Jupriyadi and Desnayeti. They did dissenting opinions," said Sobandi.

Although the two judges expressed different opinions, not the other three judges, including Supreme Court Justice Suhadi.

"So he rejects the cassation. It means the death penalty is still there," he said.

"But the decision is to improve (to become, red) for life," continued Sobandi.
