Mantan Ketua MK warns illegal surveillance

Mantan Ketua Mahkamah Konstitusi Arief Hidayat says illegal surveillance of President Prabowo could become treason if it threatens national sovereignty.

“Kalau saya melihatnya perlu diperdalam dan diteliti lagi oleh aparat penegak hukum, apakah sudah mengarah ke perbuatan makar. Itu yang penting”

Surveillance involves foreign entities

Arief Hidayat states that surveillance involving foreign entities and threatening national sovereignty constitutes treason.

“Hasil penyadapan terhadap Presiden Prabowo untuk apa dan apabila ada pihak asing yang terlibat maka itu sangat bahaya sekali karena dapat mengancam kedaulatan negara”

Domestic power struggles

Arief Hidayat says domestic power struggles involving surveillance are more likely misuse of authority than treason.

“Namun, apabila penyadapan terhadap tokoh organisasi masyarakat, partai politik, dan media massa yang bersikap kritis dilatarbelakangi persaingan atau perebutan kekuasaan antarkekuatan politik dalam negeri”

Police investigation

Police have identified three generals as suspects in the surveillance of President Prabowo.

“Tiga jenderal polisi menjadi tersangka. Mereka adalah mantan Kapolri Jenderal Listyo Sigit Prabowo (LSP), Irjen Slamet Uliandi (SU), Irjen Ahrie Sonta (AS), dan Irjen Eko Hadi (EH)”

Detentions

Two generals are detained at Brimob while one is hospitalized due to illness.

“Kini, Jenderal Listyo Sigit Prabowo, Irjen Eko Hadi (EH), Irjen Ahrie Sonta ditahan di Rutan Mako Brimob setelah sempat ditahan di Rutan Bareskrim Polri. Sementara Irjen Slamet Uliandi belum ditahan karena alasan sedan sakit”

Call for transparency

Arief Hidayat urges open investigation to prevent future misuse of authority by law enforcement.

“Saya berharap proses penyidikan dapat dituntaskan secara terbuka dan memberikan kejelasan kepada masyarakat karena penanganan perkara itu juga penting sebagai pembelajaran”
