Solidarity Action Committee for Munir (KASUM) welcomed the examination
process of the South Jakarta Districts Court's Panel of Judges who had set
free Muchdi Pr in the indictment of planning the murder of the Deceased
Munir, they are Judge Soeharto, Ahmad Yuzak and Haswandi. This examination is
expected to bring justice for victims and bring truth for the public.

In the examination results and expectations, KASUM convey some important
notes.

First, KASUM expects Judicial Commission to work immediately and submit the
examination results of South Jakarta District Court's judges to the
Supreme Court (MA) of the Republic of Indonesia. This is important, because
the results of the examination could became an additional base for Supreme
Court's panel of judges final appeal to review the defendant
Muchdi PR case.

Second, KASUM urged the Supreme Court issued a final appeal verdict of Muchdi
Pr case due to expired period of 5 month, similar to the earlier appeal
process of defendant Pollycarpus that only takes 5 month.

Third, as the public examinations result toward Muchdi Pr not guilty
verdict on 18 April 2009 ago, that the verdict to free Muchdi Pr have a lot
of awkwardness, for instance, the Panel of Judges had weaken a legal evidence
over defendant testimony. This shows that the Panel of judges which tried
Munir murder case with the defendant Muchdi Pr was not credible.
