An Australian woman has been pardoned after spending 20 years in prison for the deaths of her four children. The pardon was granted by the New South Wales state authorities after a judicial review found reasonable doubt about the sentence handed down. As reported by Reuters, Monday (5/6/2023), this woman named Kathleen Megan Folbigg was found guilty in 2003, for the murder of her three children and for the involuntary murder of her fourth child. During the trial, Folbigg pleaded not guilty and insisted that his children died of natural causes.[1]

An initial 2019 investigation found evidence to corroborate Folbigg's guilt. But a second inquiry led by former justice Thomas Bathurst revisited the 2002 conviction after new evidence suggested two of Folbigg's children had a genetic mutation that could have caused their deaths. On Monday (5/6) local time, the Attorney General for the state of New South Wales, Michael Daley, pardoned Folbigg after the findings of an investigation by Bathrust found reasonable doubt in any sentencing.[2]

"Today's results are confirmation that our judicial system is capable of delivering justice, and demonstrates that the rule of law is an important foundation of our democratic system," Daley said in announcing his pardon. "Given everything that has happened over the last 20 years, it's impossible not to feel some sympathy for Kathleen and Craig Folbigg," he added.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.

This is the true story of a murder case that was revealed thanks to a tiger shark. This story happened in Australia in 1935 ago. What's the story like? Sharks are known as the top predators in the ocean. Shark attacks are also a scourge for tourists. Most recently, a Russian foreigner was killed by a shark in Egypt. But did the traveler know that sharks can also reveal a murder case? Collected by detikTravel from several sources, Wednesday (14/6/2023) in 1935, a fisherman in Sydney, Australia managed to catch a tiger shark or Tiger Shark.[1]

The tiger shark was then transported to be displayed in an aquarium in the city of Sydney. Less than a week in the aquarium, the tiger shark looks sick. In front of the visitors, suddenly the shark spews out pieces of a human body, in the form of a left hand and part of an arm with a distinctive tattoo. Of course the scene made the aquarium visitors hysterical. Pieces of human hands floating in the aquarium were also reported to the Sydney Police. They were quick and immediately conducted an investigation.[2]

From the examination of fingerprints, it was found that the victim owned the left hand named James 'Jim' Smith, a former boxer and recidivist who was often in and out of jail. Jim was reported missing since April 7, 1935. From the police's examination, it was found that the severed left hand was not bitten by the tiger shark, but had been cut off on purpose. That was evident from the cut caused by the knife on the severed hand. The police then conducted an intense investigation. As a result, they suspect a successful businessman named Reginald William Lloyd Holmes as the perpetrator of Jim's murder. Holmes is also known as a conman and skilled smuggler who also runs a shipbuilding business.[3]

Jim was last seen drinking and playing cards with Brady at the Cecil hotel in Cronulla, a south Sydney suburb on 7 April 1935, the day he disappeared. Before disappearing, Jim told his wife he was going fishing. Brady himself rented a small cottage on Talombi Street, Cronulla at the time Jim disappeared. The police accuse Brady of killing Jim at this cottage. However, despite a thorough examination, Jim's remains were never found. Brady was finally arrested on May 16, 1935 and charged with Smith's murder. Initially, Holmes denied any relationship with Brady. However, four days later, on May 20, 1935, the businessman went to his boathouse and attempted suicide by shooting himself in the head with a .32 caliber pistol. However, the suicide attempt failed because the bullet actually hit his forehead bone.[4]

Holmes finally agreed to cooperate with the police. He testified that Brady had killed Jim, dismembered his body, stuffed it in the trunk, and then thrown it into the ocean of Gunnamatta Bay. It was one of Jim's body parts that was eventually eaten by the tiger shark and then vomited up, thus successfully solving this murder case.[5] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.

Illegal investment or fraudulent investment is still rampant. The Financial Services Authority (OJK) even said that public losses due to fraudulent investments have reached IDR 5 trillion in the last 8 years. "In that context, from 2017 to last month, the Investment Alert Task Force (SWI) under OJK coordination has closed more than 5,500 illegal investment and loan offers," said Chairman of the OJK Board of Commissioners Mahendra Siregar quoted from Antara, written Monday ( 26/6/2023).[1]

He said that in the future the OJK would continue to empower SWI by strengthening its mandate under the Financial Sector Development and Strengthening Law (UU P2SK) by carrying out cyber patrols and stopping illegal financial activities. At the same time, OJK will also participate in anti-money laundering, preventing the financing of terrorism, and preventing funding for the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction in the financial services sector by issuing OJK Regulation Number 8 of 2023. Based on the P2SK Law, OJK is also preparing to implement the expansion of OJK's mandate where later OJK will also oversee and regulate activities related to savings and loan cooperatives and digital asset transactions that were not previously supervised by OJK.[2]

Cyber-attacks in the financial services sector, which continue to increase in line with developments in digitization, are also being anticipated by the OJK. As noted by the National Cyber ​​and Crypto Agency (BSSN), in 2022 more than 700 million cyber attacks occurred in all sectors in Indonesia. "In the regulatory context, the OJK issued rules at the end of last year regarding the implementation of technology and information by commercial banks and circulars related to cyber security and resilience for commercial banks. So today is how to apply these rules consistently," he said.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.
