Additional description

Joint security forces arrested Piper Murib, Dinius Kogoya and Salam Telenggen who were carrying 70 ammunition to Lanny Jaya.

Prosecutor sought 4 years' imprisonment for Piper and Salam.

Two members of the TNI were implicated in the case but it is unclear how they will be prosecuted.

With the conditional release policy granted to prisoners who have served two-thirds of their sentence, Piper should have been released from prison in early June 2025, or even earlier if they received several remissions.
