Ri sends protest note to saudi
JAKARTA - Director of Protection of Indonesian Citizens and Legal Entities Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Indonesia, Lalu Muhammad Iqbal said, his party has filed an official protest to the government of Saudi Arabia regarding the execution of Zaini Misrin dead.
Iqbal said the protest was related to the Saudi decision to execute Zaini, while the review process (PK) filed by Zaini's lawyer still runs in the country's Appeals Court.
Zaini's lawyer has filed a second PK earlier this year, after the first PK filed last year was rejected. The Saudi Court of Appeal, still processing the PK request and to date no decision has been reached or rejected. "Today the Indonesian government submitted a formal protest and requested an explanation by calling on the Saudi Ambassador, the first Director General of Asia Pacific and Africa to express concern and protest against the ambassador and override the new PK process," Iqbal said. "Secondly, submit an official letter of protest, our ambassador in Riyadh will also deliver the same note to the Saudi Foreign Ministry," he said in a press conference on Monday (19/3). Zaini himself is known to be executed yesterday. The man from Madura was executed for allegedly killing his employer. Zaini has been detained by Saudi authorities since 2004, and the Indonesian government has begun mentoring since 2008.
Iqbal mentioned that the new assistance was conducted in 2004, as the Saudi government did not give notice to the Indonesian representative that Zaini had been secured and only informed after the judge sentenced Zaini. (esn)
