The West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) High Prosecutor's Office does not question the position of IWAS alias Agus Tuntung using the alma mater of the State Hindu Institute of Religion (IAHN) Gde Pudja Mataram when demonstrating scenes in the reconstruction of cases of alleged sexual harassment.

"Because when Agus (IWAS) did his actions, it caught the attention of the victims, using alma mater jackets, so the alma mater was worn during the reconstruction," said Head of the NTB Attorney General's Office Enen Saribanon in Mataram, Monday, December 16, confiscated by Antara.

However, Enen did not explain the rules requiring a suspect to wear prison clothes when demonstrating scenes in the reconstruction of a case.

"So, in the reconstruction, something that fits what he did," he said.

The reconstruction activity of the alleged sexual harassment case was in Mataram City on Wednesday, December 11. There are three reconstruction locations that are part of the alleged criminal act of the IWAS suspect.

The first location is in Taman Udayana and the second is in the outskirts of the Islamic Center. The two locations are suspected of being the introduction and the suspect's efforts to attract the victim's attention.

The third location is in one of the inns suspected of being where the suspect has sex with the victim.

This reconstruction was held by NTB Police investigators by presenting an Inafis team, the prosecutor's office, women and children observer institutions, as well as IWAS suspects with the assistance of a legal team.

Also present were the Deputy Chief of the NTB Police Brigadier General Pol. Ruslan Aspan along with a number of the main officials of the NTB Police. Also present was an internal supervisory team from the Itwasum Police Headquarters.

The reconstruction, which lasted about 3 hours, was played with 49 scenes. The IWAS suspect was presented by investigators without wearing prison clothes.
