Right to counsel in Indonesia

➢ Examination of suspects

The suspect has the right to be questioned by the military police. This examination is carried out by observing the procedures regulated in law including fulfilling the suspect's rights such as the right to be accompanied by a legal representative or defense attorney, however, in cases of desertion the suspect cannot choose his own legal representative from outside.military, for example, perpetrator A appoints a well-known lawyer who is well-known and has high popularity and high winnings with large fees from outside the military to accompany him in military justice. This cannot be fulfilled because within the military scope it upholds military ethics and discipline regarding respect for the provisions of the agency, where the Power of Attorney The law must originate from the military sphere. [Emphasis added.]
