Acting Head of the Gunung Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) Lebak area, Pitra Panderi, confirmed that illegal mining activities are still rampant in his area. The mining pits are said to have been operating for a long time even though they have been frequently closed. "Yes, Gurandil's activities have been going on for a long time," said Pitra when contacted, Thursday (16/2/2023).[1]

Pitra explained that there are illegal mining locations throughout the GHSNP area. In Lebak itself, this activity was identified in Cibeber, Lebak Gedong and other areas. He could not yet detail the number of illegal gold mining pits in GHSNP. But the number is estimated there are many. "(Illegal mining pits) the exact number must look at the data, it's roughly a lot," he said. Miners, said Pitra, are local residents. They are looking for gold illegally to meet the necessities of life.[2]

"In the villages there, local people who have been mining gold for years," he explained. Pitra said, there have often been actions to close mining pits. Miners will return to opening holes because there is no other guarantee to work. "It has been coordinated with the law enforcement division of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, so the authority is there and they already understand that too. We have stepped there," he explained. "Besides that, the Regent has also closed in 2020. Due to the needs of the villager, it's been closed and opened again. So in my opinion there can't be a single solution. You have to convince the public that it's not good, it's not just a solution for the single person who is 'naughty' is arrested, imprisoned, prosecuted but indeed needs to educated also," he concluded.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.

A child named Nofiandari Safira (26) in Situbondo, East Java, is suing his biological father, Bambang Purwadi (53). Nofiandari sued because she was afraid that her inheritance would go to her stepmother.. The inheritance is in the form of two plots of land and buildings in the Paowan Indah Housing Complex, Block C Number 7 and Block C Number 8 which have now been merged. As well as two savings with a total of IDR 160 million. The inheritance being sued for by an only child was actually the property of the marriage between Bambang Purwadi and Aida Nurmala (the plaintiff's mother). Aida herself died in July 2021.[1]

Currently, Bambang has remarried in a series with Anik Indrawati in November 2022. Bambang Purwadi's attorney, Ide Prima, said Nofiandari was worried that his mother's inheritance would fall to other parties. The estate inherited from his late mother has never been divided among the heirs, namely his own father, himself and his grandmother. He said the treasure was a relic from when his mother was still alive. "Basically, the child and grandmother are worried that the property left by their mother will fall into the hands of another party. Namely, his father's new wife," explained Ide.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.

Legal Vacuum, Courts in Spain in Favor of Nudists

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Indonesian Immigration Launches Pre-Investment Visit Visa, These are the Requirements", "Unique Case, Accounts of Bird Sellers in Madura Blocked by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK)", "Woman in Lampung Arrested for Remarrying Without Husband's Permit", "The Case of Fake Doctors in Indonesian Soccer" you may read also "The 4 Weirdest Judges' Verdicts" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Legal Vacuum, Courts in Spain in Favor of Nudists'. One more unique case, this time it happened in Spain. Check out the story as reported by Reuters as follows.

A Spanish high court has ruled in favour of a man who was fined for walking naked through the streets of a town in the region of Valencia and later tried to attend a court hearing in the nude. In a statement, the region's high court said it had struck down an appeal against a lower court decision to annul fines handed out to the man for being naked in the streets of Aldaia, a town on the outskirts of the regional capital.[1]

The court, however, acknowledged a "legal vacuum" in Spanish law regarding public nudity. Alejandro Colomar, 29, was filmed arriving at court wearing just a pair of hiking boots before being ordered to put more clothes on to enter the building. At his trial, he argued that the fines infringed on his right to ideological freedom.[2]

He told Reuters he began stripping off in public in 2020 and has received more support than insults when walking about naked, although he was once threatened with a knife. "The fine doesn't make any sense," he said. "They accused me of obscene exhibitionism. According to the dictionary that implies sexual intent and (that) has nothing to do with what I was doing." Public nudity has been legal in Spain since 1988. Anyone can walk naked down a street without being arrested, but some regions such as Valladolid and Barcelona have introduced their own laws to regulate nudism, especially away from the beach. The court noted that Aldaia has no law prohibiting nudism.[3]

The Valencia court ruled Colomar had "limited himself to remaining or circulating naked at different times in two different streets of Aldaia," and his behaviour did not imply an "alteration of citizen security, tranquility or public order".[4] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.

A woman in Tulang Bawang district, Lampung province, initials: YL, was reported to the police for remarrying without her husband's permit. YL has also been arrested and made a suspect. YL was reported by her husband, AD, to the Tulang Bawang Police because she remarried to another man. AD is YL's second husband, after divorcing her first husband.[1]

"Yes, it's true, AD's husband from YL came to the office with evidence and a marriage certificate. In the report, the victim was hurt and felt betrayed because his wife remarried.

In fact, after divorcing her first husband, YL has been married to AD since 2020.[2]

"The suspect YL entered into her third marriage by showing a divorce certificate with her first husband and making a statement on a stamp duty that she was ready to take responsibility for her marriage so that the prince and witnesses were sure that YL's status was a widow. Even though she had been legally married to the victim AD since 2020," he explained. YL was then summoned by the police and named a suspect. For this act, YL was named a suspect by violating Article 279 subsidiary 280 more subsidiary 284 of the Criminal Code with a penalty of 7 years in prison.[3]

Trapped in Debt, Asking for a Solution to the Shaman, Tasikmalaya Residents Even Lose IDR 10 Million

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Legally Declared Dead, Residents Sue the Bandung Population and Civil Registry Service!", "These are 4 Legal Cases that Have Befallen the Elderly in Indonesia", "Another Unique Case, Judge Marrying Divorce Plaintiff Becomes Second Wife", "5 Interesting Cases that Become the Jurisprudence of the Supreme Court in Indonesia" you may read also "Umrah Pilgrim Fraud with Low Cost Mode in Bogor Happens Again" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Trapped in Debt, Asking for a Solution to the Shaman, Tasikmalaya Residents Even Lose IDR 10 Million'.

Dizzy due to being in debt to the bank, a resident asked for the help of a shaman. Instead of paying off the debt, the resident with the initials SW (32), a resident of Purbaratu Sub-District, Tasikmalaya City, instead lost IDR. 10 million due to being deceived by the shaman. Public Relations of the Tasikmalaya Police officer, Jajang Kurniawan, said the shaman with the initials AR (65) alias 'Abah', a resident of Pagerageung Sub-District, Tasikmalaya Regency, was arrested at his home, Thursday (9/2/2023). "The perpetrator or the shaman has been arrested by the Resmob Satreskrim team," said Jajang, Friday (10/2/2023).[1]

Jajang said the fraud case started when the victim had debt problems with the bank. In the midst of the confusion, the victim finally met 'Abah', someone who claimed to be a shaman. "The victim talked about his problem, the perpetrator was immediately tricked. He claimed he could provide a solution by undergoing a money doubling ritual," said Jajang.[2]

However, the ritual of multiplying money requires capital. In addition to the nominal amount of money to be doubled, the perpetrators also said they needed to buy the requirements for the ritual. "The modus operandi was for offerings and other things, the total victim was asked for IDR. 10 million and had to be put in a black backpack," said Jajang. Like a buffalo being picked on the nose, the victim then handed over the conditional money of IDR. 10 million in a black backpack. After that the perpetrator then pretended to carry out the ritual. "The bag was then returned to the victim. The perpetrator said that tomorrow morning there would be IDR. 500 million in the bag," said Jajang.[3]

The next day, the victim hopefully opened the backpack. But it turns out that the bag only contains empty boxes. Realizing that he had been tricked, the victim finally reported it to the Police. "After receiving the report and carrying out an investigation, this fake shaman was arrested," said Jajang. In addition, the Police also secured several pieces of evidence, including jenglot, pig chains and other shamanic objects.[4]

The perpetrators were immediately arrested and charged under Article 378 and/or 372 of the Criminal Code (KUHP), with the threat of imprisonment for a maximum of four years. "We never get tired of reminding people to be careful, don't believe easily. There have been many examples of shamanic practices but it turned out to be fraud. Even like in Cianjur, fraud with the mode of this shaman turned into serial killings," said Jajang.[5] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.
