Abu Bakar Ba’asyir will be free this week. The Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkum HAM) said that those convicted of terrorism cases will be free.

“Pure and free,” said on Monday (1/4/2021) the head of Kemenkum’s West Java Human Rights Office, Imam Suyudi, at his office, Jalan Jakarta, Bandung city.

Imam said that the founder of the Islamic Al Mukmin boarding school, Ngruki Sukoharjo, will be released on Friday, January 8, 2021, from Gunung Sindur Prison, Bogor. There are no conditions for Abu Bakr to follow after serving a 15-year sentence.

“So there are no special requirements, if it is a pure exemption,” he said.

However, Imam said that Abu Bakr had received a referral. The total remission received by Abu Bakar Ba’asyir was 55 months.

“If the referral is a right. They still get it,” he said.

In retrospect, the release of Abu Bakar Ba’asyir was withdrawn in 2019. At that time, President Jokowi was about to release Ba’asyir for humanitarian reasons.

Jokowi initially stated that he had given permission to release those convicted of terrorism cases. One of Jokowi’s considerations is the human factor given Ba’asyir’s age and health.

“The human factor. This means it is old. Yes, the human factor, including health conditions,” Jokowi said at Darul Arqam Islamic Boarding School, Jl Ciledug, Garut, West Java on Friday (1/18/2019) .

He said the decision was made on the basis of lengthy consideration, from the security side to the health of Ba’asyir. Jokowi also emphasized that the consideration was carried out by listening to the comments of various parties, including the Chief of the National Police, General Tito Karnavian, the Coordinating Minister of Political, Legal and Security Affairs Wiranto, and the legal expert Yusril Ihza Mahendra.

“This is a protracted consideration, a consideration from the security side with the Chief of Police, the experts and finally Pak Yusril,” he said.

However, Abu Bakar Ba’asyir’s parole was reviewed. Conditional release rules must be followed, according to Jokowi. Jokowi does not want to run into the legal system. The regulation in question is Government Regulation Number 99 of 2012, which states that convicted terrorists who are granted parole must declare their allegiance to the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.

“At the moment there is a legal system, there is a legal mechanism that we have to go through, I just fell down, I couldn’t. Also, this is a basic situation. True to the Republic of Indonesia, always to Pancasila,” he said.

Meanwhile, Ba’asyir, who actually passed the two-thirds sentence, did not apply for parole. This is because Ba’asyir does not want to be loyal to the NKRI.

The Muslim Law Team (TPM) then explained the reason why Ba’asyir refused to sign the parole document. The document, among others, contains a confession of criminal acts, while Ba’asyir, according to the DPM, affirmed that he did not do the alleged.

“There are many types of documents. The most important thing is a document to promise not to commit a crime,” TPM Mahendradatta chairman of the board of directors, Jalan Raya Fatmawati, South Cipete, South said Monday (1/21). Jakarta.

Mahendradatta also explained why Ba’asyir refused to push the pledge of allegiance to the NKRI. Ba’asyir, according to Mahendradatta, does not need to be loyal to Pancasila because he is already loyal to Islam.

“The conversation went like this, ‘Ustaz, how come you don’t want to sign, if Pancasila is the same as defending Islam?’ ‘If that’s the same as Pancasila, why don’t I defend Islam? Ustaz, if it’s the same, why don’t I sign one, not two? It’s just innocence what I’m saying, “Mahendradatta said.
