Top Murder Case at Now

Murder case news by Antasari Azhar going around the world now, see comment from the another famous magazine, The Economist.

They have a good thing to say about how the government institution, including KPK deputy chiefs, respond and handle things after Antasari Azhar’s murder case. Here some of those comments:


The good news for Indonesia is that the scandal appears to be unconnected to KPK business. There is also no suggestion yet that Mr Antasari has been framed by any of his enemies—and he can be assumed to have quite a few. The previous central-bank governor, a senior prosecutor and several legislators are among those he has successfully prosecuted.

… The KPK has responded to his detention with admirable lack of fuss. The four deputy chiefs suspended their boss within hours of his being declared a suspect. It appears to be business as usual at the institution, with at least one high-profile indictment proceeding this week.

.. The police, however, have come out of this well, so far. They have much work still to do because few convictions seem likely on the basis of what is known to date. But at least they, like the other Indonesian institutions involved, are starting to function professionally. And the elite, it seems, is no longer above the law.
