Malaysia: Fourteen police on t
Fourteen police personnel stood trial before a code of ethics assembly in Bojonegoro on Wednesday over their alleged bungle that resulted in the wrongful conviction of three villagers for a murder case last September.
East Java Police deputy chief Brig. Gen. Sugiyono said the personnel, including former Jombang Police chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Dwi Setiadi and interrogators, would be tried according to their roles in the case.
"The interrogators have accounted for their faults before the assembly appointed by the provincial police, while the former chief is responsible for the investigation into the murder case," he said.
Others being tried include former Jombang Police chief detective Adj. Comr. Irfan and former Bandar Kedungmulyo Police chief Adj. Comr. Anang Nurwahyudi.
Imam Khambali, also known as Kemat, and Devit Sugianto, were sentenced to 17 years' and 12 years' imprisonment respectively for the murder of a man identified as Asrori. Both Kemat and Devit are Bandar Kedungmulgo residents. Mamak Sugianto, also known as Sugik, was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment.
Asrori's body was found in a sugarcane plantation in September 2007.
Suspected serial killer Very Idham Henyansyah, also known as Ryan, confessed to killing Asrori, saying the body was buried in his parents' backyard in Jombang.
A DNA test conducted by the provincial police confirmed his statement, revealing that the body found at the plantation belonged to Fauzin Suyanto who was allegedly killed by Rudi, a resident of Kediri.
Kemat and Devit were released last week from Jombang Prison, while Sugik was acquitted of the charges. Both Ryan and Rudi are being tried in Jakarta and Jombang courts respectively.
Meanwhile, lawyers of Kemat and Devit recently filed a lawsuit against the police, seeking name rehabilitation and adequate compensation from the state for the pain their clients suffered during their detention, interrogation and imprisonment.
"The police has to learn from the murder case to avoid such mistakes from happening in the future and all involved in the investigation of the case should be brought to court," Kemat's lawyer Athoillah said.
He also called on the National Commission of Human Rights to present the results of their investigation into possible human rights violations.
He also urged the code of ethics assembly to consider the commission's findings when trying the police personnel.
