"Lukas Enembe's mother (Yulce) and her son Bona exercised their constitutional rights, their legal rights to refuse to be heard as witnesses," said member of Lukas' legal and advocacy team, Petrus Bala Pattyona.

Petrus explained that the basis for the rejection was regulated in Article 35 of the Corruption Law and Article 168 paragraph 2 of the Criminal Procedure Code. He said the regulation states that members of the nuclear family, such as wives and children, have the right to refuse to give information to investigators because they have blood relations with the suspect.
