Previously, the Indonesian prosecutors demanded life imprisonment for the masterminding of the murder. The prosecutors also found enough evidence that Ferdy’s wife, Putri Candrawathi, and other aides, Second Patrolman Richard Eliezer (Bharada E) and Brigadier Ricky Rizal (Bripka RR), as well as driver Kuat Ma’ruf, had assisted the premeditated murder.

The prosecutors charged Putri, Ricky Rizal, and Kuat Ma’ruf with an eight-jail term, respectively for their role in the murder of Brigadier J. Meanwhile, Richard was charged with a 12-year jail term for his role as a suspected shooter which resulted in Brigadier J’s death.
