Victim of Abuse, the Child of the Bakery Owner, Admits to Having Been Assisted by a Lawyer from the Perpetrator's Family, Revealed in the Police Report

Kapanlagi.com - The abuse case involving George Sugama Halim (GSH), the child of the bakery owner, is drawing increasing public attention following a shocking confession from the victim. In a meeting with Commission III of the DPR, Dwi Ayu Darmawati (DA), the victim, revealed a startling fact: she was once accompanied by a lawyer who turned out to be a representative from the perpetrator's family.

This incident came to light during the process of the Police Report (BAP) at the East Jakarta Metro Police. DA initially did not realize that the lawyer was a representative of the perpetrator's side. The lawyer claimed to be a representative from a legal aid organization (LBH) sent by the police to assist with the legal process. However, the bitter truth was revealed when the lawyer admitted that he was directly sent by GSH's mother.

This incident adds to the long list of sufferings faced by DA, who has previously encountered various obstacles, from rejected reports to deception by other lawyers. This case increasingly illustrates how complicated the path to justice is for victims.

Check out the complete information compiled by Kapanlagi.com, Wednesday (18/12).

1. Shocking Confession from the Victim: The Lawyer Sent by the Perpetrator

Dwi Ayu Darmawati recounted her shocking experience when accompanied by a lawyer who claimed to be from the Legal Aid Institute (LBH).

The lawyer came offering legal assistance to Dwi and her family, promising that the legal process would go faster if he got involved.

However, during the Minutes of Examination (BAP) process at the East Jakarta Metro Police, it was revealed that the lawyer was actually sent directly by the perpetrator's mother, Linda.

This confession left Dwi and her family stunned, considering they initially thought the lawyer was a neutral party.

"I was once sent a lawyer from the perpetrator's side, but at first, I didn't know that the lawyer was from the perpetrator's side. He claimed to be from LBH, sent by the police headquarters," she revealed, as reported by YouTube Liputan6.

2. Victims Feel Unsafe

This heartbreaking story begins with shattered trust, when the victim realizes that the lawyer they relied on is actually affiliated with the perpetrator, creating an increasingly profound sense of insecurity.

Disappointment sets in, and the victim decides to part ways with the lawyer in search of better justice.

However, that search ends in new disappointment, as the replacement lawyer also turns out to be unreliable.

When asked about the case's progress, the information provided is always vague and confusing.

"When at the police station for the statement, he said he was instructed by my boss, Mrs. Linda," she revealed, adding to the list of uncertainties that continue to haunt her steps.

3. Willing to Sell Motorcycle to Pay Lawyer but Suddenly Disappears

After changing lawyers, DA and her family's hopes for justice are still far from reality. The new lawyer, who was expected to help, instead disappears without a word, while she continuously comes to the house to provide unclear information and ask for money.

In an effort to meet the demands for this lawyer's fees, DA and her family are forced to sell their only motorcycle.

"My mom ended up changing lawyers again, but every time I ask about the case's progress, she always replies, 'it's being processed.' Ironically, she still comes to the house and keeps asking for money," she said with a tone of disappointment.

4. Public Response to This Case

The shocking confession from the victim regarding this fake lawyer has sparked a strong reaction from the public. Various netizens have voiced sharp condemnation against the actions of the perpetrator's family, which are seen as degrading the dignity of the legal process and attempting to manipulate the victim.

This case has also attracted the attention of many parties, including legal advocacy organizations and Commission III of the Indonesian House of Representatives, which are urging that the victim receives the protection and assistance they deserve.

Public pressure has prompted law enforcement to act more swiftly, ensuring that the legal process proceeds in accordance with existing regulations.

This incident serves as a crucial reminder of the urgency for reforming the legal system to be more transparent and fair, especially for those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

5. How to know if a lawyer has a conflict of interest?

Make sure to conduct a thorough check on your lawyer's track record and affiliations to ensure that they have no connections with the opposing party in your case.

6. What to do if you find a fake lawyer?

Immediately report this incident to the authorities and do not hesitate to seek a new lawyer who can provide independent and trustworthy legal assistance.

7. Why do victims of violence often face legal manipulation?

Victims of violence often find themselves caught in a complex legal web due to limited access to adequate information and resources, making it difficult for them to choose the right legal companion to support their struggle.

8. What is the best step to protect victims' rights in cases of violence?

The government must take firm steps to strengthen protection for victims by providing independent legal assistance and ensuring easy access to legal aid services.
