Jakarta –
Head of the Prabowo-Gibran Defense Team Yusril Ihza Mahendra commenting on the protest by AMIN National Legal Team Member, Bambang Widjojanto, regarding Eddy Hiariej who was presented as an expert from the Prabowo-Gibran team. Yusril also brought up Bambang Widjojanto (BW), who had been involved in a legal case and according to him is still a suspect until now.
“We should question the status of Mr. Bambang Widjojanto himself. He is a suspect, P21 was transferred to the prosecutor’s office, his status was deponed again. What now? Suspect forever, for the life of the suspect,” said Yusril in a press conference at the Constitutional Court, Jakarta , Thursday (4/4/2024).
BW previously did walk out when Eddy Hiariej wanted to give a statement at the follow-up trial to the 2024 presidential election dispute. Meanwhile, Yusril also evaluate BW’s actions walk out from the courtroom was inappropriate, because Eddy was not a suspect after his pretrial request was granted by the court.

“Right now he says he wants to name another suspect, you know, not yet. Well, if he says he’s a suspect, that’s no problem either. Who says suspects can’t be experts?” he said.
Yusril then assessed that the case involving Eddy was different from BW because BW currently still has the status of a suspect.
“If that person in SP3 closepeople won their pretrial close. “This person is a suspect, he’s only being detained, he hasn’t been brought to court, and he’ll never be a suspect,” said Yusril.
“So I’m surprised, this person likes to blame other people but doesn’t look at himself,” he concluded.
