Haiti expressed readiness to accept any form of correction if his men, in this case Densus 88, were proven guilty of committing violations that had led to Siyono`s death.Jakarta (ANTARA News) - National Police Chief General Badrodin Haiti expressed his gratitude on Tuesday to the Muhammadiyah Islamic organization for having conducted an autopsy on Siyono, a suspected terrorist who recently died in police custody.
"I extended my gratitude for the autopsy conducted on the late Suyono and its results. We laud it," he stated at the Police Headquarters.
Haiti said based on the results of the autopsy, the investigation could be conducted to find whether the polices anti-terror squad Densus 88 had committed any form of violation while arresting and taking Siyono into custody.
He said the results of the autopsy would be matched against the results of the investigation conducted by the polices Internal and Professional Affairs Division and the Inspectorate of General Supervision that are currently investigating the case of Siyono.
Haiti expressed readiness to accept any form of correction if his men, in this case Densus 88, were proven guilty of committing violations that had led to Siyonos death.
"We have the Inspectorate of General Supervision that conducts supervision and the Internal and Professional Affairs Division, which is in charge of carrying out investigations. If any violations of the ethical code and discipline are found, certainly a session will be held, but if a criminal act is involved, then a judicial process will follow," he explained.
On Monday (April 11), the Muhammadiyah central executive board, a team of doctors from the Central Java chapter of the Association of Indonesian Forensic Doctors, and the National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM) revealed the results of Siyonos autopsy.
Komnas HAM, in cooperation with Muhammadiyah, had conducted the monitoring and investigation, including the autopsy, in connection with the death of suspected terrorist Siyono.
The forensic autopsy was carried out by nine forensic doctors from the Central Java chapter of the Association of Indonesian Forensic Doctors and a forensic doctor from the Central Java regional police command, led by Gatot Suharto.
The autopsy was conducted on Sunday morning (April 3) at the cemetery where Siyono was buried in Klaten, Central Java.
The results of the autopsy were produced seven days after the procedure was conducted following a microscopic examination.
Siyono, a villager of Dukuh Hamlet, Pogung Village, in Klaten, was reported dead on Friday (March 11) after being arrested by Densus 88.
His wife, Suratmi, has sought justice following the incident.(*)
