T
he panel of judges in the trial of murder defendant Jessica Kumala Wongso agreed on Wednesday to schedule an examination hearing at the crime scene at Olivier cafe to gain clearer information on the circumstances of the death of Wayan Mirna Salihin.
The decision was made after judge Binsar Gultom requested that table and couch number 54 be presented in court; the couch, however, is affixed to the floor of the cafe. The table was used by Jessica, the late Mirna and their friend Hani on Jan. 6.
"We want to know the factual position of the Vietnamese coffee in the table. I am not satisfied with the current explanation," Binsar said, adding that he also wanted to know the position of the coffee when Mirna and Hani arrived at the cafe.
He also urged the prosecutors to be more active in presenting the evidence against Jessica. (rin)
