First, operation acceptance letter (SLO), the second vessel monitoring system (VMS) are not activated, and ditemuikannya hammerheads.
"In yesterday's indictment was read, from three points only one proven charges. That is proven that just hammerheads. For the task force is odd, as if from the investigation to prosecution P21, "said Ahmad.
That is, he added, if the case has status P21 means all the evidence is solid, which means that the vessel found guilty of illegal fishing. However, the public prosecutor (prosecutor) decided only one charge proved, which is about the hammerheads.
As a matter of SLO, the prosecutor decided not problematic because the existing Letter of Approval Sailing (SPB) issued by the Ministry of Transportation harbormaster. While the second charge related to the death of VMS, seen as an element of chance, because the plug off.
"If it's P21 after prosecutors researchers, meaning that all the evidence is solid. Then the prosecutor who was not able to prove the three charges, only one proved. From we should wait for the decision because the court's decision is not necessarily equal to the prosecution. So wait and see better , "he said.
Following up the irregularities of the court's decision, the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries will submit an appeal to the Judicial Commission. "We will examine why this happened and will deliver to KY," said Ahmad.
