What happened to Sengkon and Karta is one of the dark history of the world of Indonesian justice. Sengkon and Karta are often written by observers when talking about law enforcement in Indonesia. Once upon a time, a robbery and murder befell the married couple Sulaiman-Siti Haya in Bojongsari Village, Bekasi, in 1974. Moments later, the police arrested Sengkon and Karta, and named them both suspects. Sengkon and Karta are farmers from Bojongsari, Bekasi, West Java. The two were accused of robbing and killing the Sulaiman-Siti Haya couple. Not feeling guilty, Sengkon and Karta initially refused to sign the minutes of the investigation. But because they could not stand the police's torture, the two of them then gave up. Judge Djurnetty Soetrisno believed the police story more than the two defendants' denials. So in October 1977, Sengkon was sentenced to 12 years in prison, and Karta to 7 years. The decision was upheld by the West Java High Court.[1]

Sengkon and Karta experienced extraordinary suffering. According to the confession, they were beaten by the authorities. And even more tormented because Sengkon was stricken with tuberculosis (TBC) in Cipinang prison. After several years in prison they meet a prison inmate named "Genul", Sengkon's nephew, who was previously jailed for theft. It was here that Genul revealed the secret that he was actually the killer of Sulaiman and Siti. Finally, in October 1980, Gunel was sentenced to 12 years in prison. Even so, this does not necessarily make them free. Because previously they had not filed an appeal, so the verdict was declared to have permanent legal force.[2]

The Sengkon and Karta cases shocked Indonesia at that time. Albert Hasibuan, a House Representative member and a lawyer, was touched and tried to free Sengkon and Karta who were determined to fight for their fate. Finally, in January 1981, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (MA) Oemar Seno Adji ordered that both of them be released through the judicial review route. The big lesson from the Sengkon and Karta cases, because the Supreme Court revived the Judicial Review institution (before the Sengkon and Karta incident was not recognized in the legal system in Indonesia) against court decisions that had permanent force (berziening), January 1981 the head of the Supreme Court Oemar Seno Adji ordered the two men it's released.[3]

Being out of jail didn't make their lot any better. Karta must face a harsh reality: his family is in a mess somewhere. And their house and land covering an area of ​​6,000 square meters in Cakung Payangan Village, Bekasi, have collapsed to finance their case. While Sengkon has to be hospitalized because his tuberculosis (TBC) is getting worse, the land he has relied on to support his family has also been sold out. The land was sold by his wife to support his children and support himself while being processed at the Police and court.[4]

Even though he only bears the burden of a wife and three children, it is impossible for Sengkon to continue his work as a farmer, because the tuberculosis (TBC) disease continues to undermine and there are too many scars on his body from the torture he has suffered. Sengkon and Karta through their lawyers filed a lawsuit against the Bekasi District Court demanding compensation of IDR. 100 million, but were refused. Likewise at Higher Court, his demands were rejected. Cassation to the Supreme Court, but too late. The Supreme Court did not examine the lawsuit file on the grounds that it was late in submitting it. According to the criminal procedural law, the files should have been received on October 25, 1983, but the files were only received on October 26, 1983. According to the lawyers, the delay was due to the late Karta's son taking care of a poverty certificate which needed to be attached to request fee waiver of court fees. Neither did he get justice on earth. Indonesia, finally God's hand touched them, Karta died in an accident while Sengkon closed his eyes for the last time not long after Karta left due to his serious illness.[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.

A judge in Florida has ordered a 65-year-old California fugitive held without bond in connection with the death of a woman nearly 40 years ago. Donald Santini was arrested by U.S. marshals in California last month, and extradited to Florida. He had used at least 13 aliases over the years. Santini was the last person seen with 33-year-old Cynthia “Cindy” Ruth Wood. The arrest warrant said a medical examiner determined she had been strangled, and Santini’s fingerprints were found on her body. “You being on the run for almost 40 years is a consciousness of guilt. You knew you were running from something,” Judge Catherine Catlin told Santini during a hearing in Tampa on Thursday. Photos taken in the courtroom showed Santini weeping before the judge denied bond. Wood's stepdaughter, Denise Kozer told the Tampa Bay Times she's hoping to find closure in a case that resulted in “total devastation” for her family.[1]

Back in 1984, Santini was known as Charles Michael Stevens, which was an alias he used to flee a warrant in Texas. At the time of his arrest, he was living under the name Wellman Simmonds in Campo, California, which is in southeastern San Diego County. He served on the local water board. “He has a wife and children in California, and I feel sorry for them because they probably didn’t know, either,” Kozer said. “But they’re all still alive. Our lives were devastated, changed forever.” Kozar told the Times that both Barry Wood and the older son of Cindy Wood had died since the slaying, and her younger half-siblings have suffered from mental health issues since their parents’ deaths. She told the newspaper she’s spent years knowing that the man who destroyed her family has been free. The case has been featured on “America’s Most Wanted” several times.[2]

Wood met with Santini, who had called her with promises of providing information about her husband, Barry Wood, that could possibly help her win custody of their two children, who were 3 and 5, according to previous reports by the Bradenton Herald. Wood also had a son from a previous relationship. Kozar was Barry Wood's daughter from another marriage. Kozar, who was 20 when Wood was killed, said she hopes Santini doesn’t get another chance to escape. “If they need extra evidence, we’re willing to let them exhume the body — whatever it takes to make sure that he doesn’t go anywhere,” Kozer said. Santini’s attorney asked the judge for bail. But prosecutors noted that Santini killed Wood after fleeing a charge in Texas related to a convenience store robbery. The judge didn't need extra evidence. “You are the definition of flight risk,” the judge told Santini during the hearing. “There is nothing I can do to preserve the safety of this community if I was to let you go.”[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.

"Usually the perpetrator sends at certain times. That's usually at 19.00 WIB, then before going to bed around 23.00 WIB, or early in the morning when he wakes up at 07.00-08.00 WIB," said Satrio in a discussion entitled 'Beware of Cyber ​​Crime, What Should Society Do?' in Jakarta, Friday (7/7/2023).[1]

According to him, this is because people tend to be careless at these hours. So, he reminded the public to be vigilant. "The perpetrator sent us when we were off guard. We were not fresh, we opened the cellphone earlier, in the end we just followed (the perpetrator's orders)," he explained.[2]

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.

A Murder Revealed Thanks to a Shark

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.

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.
