Death Penalty
Chairman of DPR RI Commission III, Habiburokhman, has stated that his commission is not intervening in the case of crew members (ABK) from the Sea Dragon Terawa ship carrying nearly 2 tons of methamphetamine at the Batam District Court. Prosecutors from the Batam District Prosecutor's Office (JPU Kejari) are insisting on the death penalty for six defendants, including Fandi Ramadhan, despite criticism from Habiburokhman. He emphasized that the death penalty should be applied selectively in accordance with the Criminal Code (KUHP).
