Nine people were killed by four people in a car that crash into a group of pedestrians, The four, identified as driver Afriani Susanti, 29, and passengers Adistira Putri Grani, 26, Deny Mulyana, 30, and Arisendi, 34, were in a Daihatsu Xenia that swerved off the road at Tugu Tani on Sunday morning, smashing into a group of people.
The officer said that the four had admitted to taking ecstasy pills and drinking alcohol at a disco in the Hayam Wuruk area of West Jakarta and at a cafe in Kemang, South Jakarta. They said they were new to the drug scene.
National Police spokesman Insp. Gen. Saud Usman Nasution said that the car was found to have been traveling at no less than 90 kilometers per hour at the time of the accident. Air pressure in the car’s front tires also was not optimal, adding to its instability at high speed, Saud said.
Yesmil Anwar, a legal expert from Padjadjaran University, said Indonesia did not apply cumulative sentences if suspects were found guilty of multiple charges.
“The suspect is facing two charges, reckless driving and the use of narcotics, and in cases like this, the judges will of course pick [the charge carrying] the heaviest sentence,” Yesmil said.
The expert added that the case pointed to a need to review the law, including drafting a specific article dealing with driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Edy Suandi Hamid, another legal expert and rector of the Indonesian Islamic University in Yogyakarta, said that the four, especially the driver, should be punished severely.
“It should not be allowed to happen that this Xenia case leads to similar punishment as in other cases that do not nearly involve so many violations and so much suffering,” he said.
MY OPINION ABOUT THIS ACCIDENT :
I think this accident should not happen, if the driver was obeying the rules. she should not drive while intoxicated or affected by drugs. I agree if she was given a punishment. I am also sorry to the families of the victims, may they be able to be patient in facingthis problem
