If we talk about evidence, of course we must adhere to Article 184 of the Criminal Procedure Code, there are 5 valid pieces of evidence and our job is to understand well what evidence adequacy means. regardless of what he did by law number 8 of 81 regarding criminal procedural law, which is in article 183,” explained Firli.
“There it is mentioned that the judge cannot decide a matter except with his conviction with at least two pieces of evidence, so the KPK works basically that way,” he added.
