In submitting this letter of application for a suspension, his party also together with the families of the suspects came to the Barelang Police.
The presence of the families of the suspects is said to be a form of seriousness between his party and the suspect's family. Therefore, Sopandi asked for this letter of application to get the attention of the Police, in order to provide a suspension to the suspects.
"This is a form of our seriousness and the family. For that we ask for attention from the Chief of Police, the Kapolda and the Chief of Police," he said.
Meanwhile, the Director of the Legal Aid Institute (LBH) Mawar Saron Batam Mangara Sijabat said that the submission of a letter of application for a suspension was an effort made by his party as a humanitarian action.
Because according to him, those who are currently detained are for solidarity with the residents of Rempang. In addition, this suspension effort is also a legal step regulated in the law.
"Here, we from the advocacy team are also waiting for legal efforts that allow and are the best, upholding human rights (HAM) for the suspects," he said.
