After being interrogated by the police, it turns out that the perpetrator is a prisoner of Madiun Prison who has just been released through the assimilation program.

The Class 1 Lowokwaru Prison Chief, Agung Krisna, explained that the perpetrator had been transferred to the Madiun Youth Prison in August 2019. The perpetrator was sentenced to 4 years in prison and was detained in July 2018.

The perpetrator was first detained in July 2018 in Lowokwaru, Malang and participated in the Madiun Youth Prison rehabilitation program. The perpetrator participated in the assimilation program on April 9, 2020.

2. Receiving Double Sanctions

According to Agung Krisna, because of committing a violation again, the perpetrator will receive double sanctions. It is regrettable that the perpetrator failed to maintain the government's trust and therefore received sanctions again.

"The sanction is the revocation of the perpetrator's assimilation certificate, and the perpetrator is then required to serve the remaining sentence," he said.

So, in addition to continuing the remaining sentence, the perpetrator will also receive additional criminal sanctions according to the case involved. The sanctions will be doubled, in addition to the revocation of remission and conditional release.
