Government Urged to Restore the Name of Ba'asyirFriday, 22 December, 2006
TEMPO Interactive, Solo: The government is urged to restore the name of Cleric Abu Bakar Ba'asyir after the Supreme Court approved a judicial review by stating that Al-Mukmin Islamic Boarding School visitor was not involved in several cases of terrorism. Indonesian Police Headquarters must also respect the verdict. �Do not make a statement that accuses Cleric Abu,� said Ba'asyir's legal adviser Achmad Michdan at Al-Mukmin Islamic Boarding School, Friday (12/22).According to Michdan, the Supreme Court's verdict must be followed by a restoration of his name although the verdict did not mention it. The restoring of one's good name, given to one that is proved not guilty, is a valid right. �Administratively, we are yet to receive copies of the judicial review�s verdict from Supreme Court. However, everyone must honor and restore his good name,� he said.
Earlier, Supreme Court freed Ba'asyir of an allegation to having been involved in a terrorism case. In its verdict, the Supreme Court did not find evidence that he was involved in the J.W.Marriot bombing in Jakarta, and the Bali Bombing I.
Ba'asyir has not yet reacted to the Supreme Court's verdict as regards the judicial review approval. Friday (12/22), Ba'asyir's greater community will discuss with the Moslem Defender�s Team as to how to react, including suing the government.
