McDier also emphasized that the evidence of the case cannot be based on assumptions or imagination. Especially when such witnesses as Nur Hassan deny accusations of participation.
“The proof is based on the statements of witnesses not based on imagination or assumptions,” McDier said.
He also emphasized the process of defining Hasto Christianto as a suspect, who, according to him, was strange and nuanced political. Including, when his client was asked to resign from the post of General Secretary of PDIP and not to dismiss Joko Vidodo or Jokovi as a party frame.
“Starting from December 13, 2024, people contacted him, asking him to resign from the post of general secretary. If he resigned, he will not be criminalized. This is the first. Then the second, do not fire Jokovi. If HEO is these two things, then it will not be criminalized, ”he said.
McDier argued that the case when Haso could not be separated from the internal dynamics of the party and the interests of the authorities.
“All brothers and sisters, let’s look good that this business is not a common thing, not a simple matter of bribery, and not a case that is an obstacle to the investigation. But this is an effort, from the discussion of some friends in PDIP, in fact it is an initial effort that did not successfully acquire a party when President Jokovi asked for an additional term of the office, and also when he did not have time in this.
