Haris Azhar and Fatia Acquitted in the Defamation Case Against Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan

Dream - Lokataru Director, Haris Azhar, and Coordinator of the Commission for Missing Persons and Victims of Violence (KontraS), Fatia Maulidiyanti, were acquitted in the case of alleged defamation of the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan.

"Judging, acquitting Haris Azhar and Fatia Maulidiyanti from all charges,"
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "words of the Chief Judge, Cokorda Gede Arthana, reading the verdict at the East Jakarta District Court, Monday, January 8, 2024, as quoted from Liputan6.com."

"Dream.co.id."

Cokorda assesses that Haris Azhar and Fatia Maulidiyanti, who were previously defendants, have not been proven legally and convincingly to have committed the criminal acts as charged by the public prosecutor. The charges include Article 27 paragraph (3) jo. Article 45 paragraph (3) of Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning amendments to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions and/or Article 14 paragraph (2) and/or Article 15 of Law Number 1 of 1946 concerning Criminal Law Regulations and/or Article 310 of the Criminal Code and/or Article 55 paragraph 1 subsection 1 of the Criminal Code.

"Stating that Haris Azhar and Fatia Maulidiyanti have not been proven legally and convincingly to have committed the criminal acts as stated in the first indictment, the primary second indictment, the subsidiary second indictment, and the third indictment.""
"ujar Cokorda" translates to "said Cokorda" in English.

"In addition, both of them are also not subject to a fine of Rp1 million or six months imprisonment as demanded by the prosecutor. The judge decided to restore the rights of Haris and Fatia. 'Restoring rights and dignity,' he said."

The case began when Haris and Fatia were discussing in a YouTube podcast titled "ADA LORD LUHUT BEHIND THE ECONOMIC-MILITARY OPS RELATIONSHIP IN INTAN JAYA!! GENERAL BIN IS ALSO THERE!!". In the video, Haris Azhar did not invite Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan to be recorded. In addition, the speakers invited were only from one side.

So that it is considered to make the general public users of Youtube not get balanced information.

"Until finally Luhut reported Haris and Fatia to the police for defamation. This case then proceeded to trial."

In this case, Haris Azhar and Fatia Maulidiyanti are considered to have violated Article 27 paragraph (3) jo. Article 45 paragraph (3) of Law Number 19 Year 2016 concerning amendments to Law Number 11 Year 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions and/or Article 14 paragraph (2) and/or Article 15 of Law Number 1 Year 1946 concerning Criminal Law Regulations and/or Article 310 of the Criminal Code and/or Article 55 paragraph 1 ke-1 of the Criminal Code.
