JAKARTA |LINTASTIMOR.ID ]-Di bawah langit Jakarta yang teduh, halaman Istana Kepresidenan menjadi saksi ketika Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra mengucapkan kalimat yang menyalakan harapan baru: sanksi etik bukanlah akhir. Pintu pidana masih terbuka.
Kasus tewasnya Affan Kurniawan, seorang pengemudi ojek online, telah mengguncang nurani publik. Tujuh anggota Brimob diseret ke meja sidang etik. Hukum internal dijalankan. Namun, publik tahu: luka kehilangan tak bisa sembuh dengan sekadar sanksi etik.
“Kalau masih terdapat aspek pidana, langkah pidana tentu bisa dilakukan,” kata Yusril. Ucapannya seperti pisau yang membelah kabut, membuka jalan bagi keadilan yang lebih dalam.
Yusril menegaskan, prosedur etik memang wajib didahulukan. Tapi transparansi, yang dipantau Komnas HAM, bukan penutup, melainkan jendela menuju proses hukum pidana. Etika mengikat institusi, namun pidana menjaga martabat hukum bangsa.

Ethics, Crime, and the Wound of Justice: The Long Road After Affan Kurniawan’s Tragedy
Beneath the calm Jakarta sky, the courtyard of the Presidential Palace bore witness as Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra spoke words that rekindled hope: ethical sanctions are not the end; the criminal path remains open.
The death of Affan Kurniawan, a motorbike taxi driver, shook the conscience of a nation. Seven Brimob officers faced an internal tribunal. Sanctions were imposed. Yet the public knows: grief is not healed by ethics alone.
“If criminal aspects are still present, then criminal proceedings may certainly follow,” said Yusril. His words cut through the haze, clearing a path toward deeper justice.
He reminded that ethics must come first by procedure, but transparency – overseen by Komnas HAM – is not the closing of a door, but the opening of a window toward criminal accountability. Ethics bind the institution, but crime confronts the nation’s conscience.

Ética, Crime e a Ferida da Justiça: O Longo Caminho Após a Tragédia de Affan Kurniawan
Sob o céu calmo de Jacarta, o pátio do Palácio Presidencial testemunhou as palavras do Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra: a sanção ética não é o fim; a via penal continua aberta.
A morte de Affan Kurniawan, um motorista de moto-táxi, abalou a consciência da nação. Sete membros da Brimob foram levados ao tribunal ético. A disciplina interna foi aplicada. Mas todos sabem: a dor da perda não se cura apenas com ética.
“Se ainda houver aspetos criminais, poderão seguir-se processos penais,” disse Yusril. As suas palavras soaram como uma lâmina que rasga a névoa, abrindo caminho para uma justiça mais profunda.
Yusril lembrou que a ética deve vir em primeiro lugar. Porém, a transparência – observada pela Komnas HAM – não fecha a porta, antes abre uma janela para a responsabilidade penal. A ética obriga a instituição, mas o crime interpela a consciência da pátria.

Éthique, Crime et la Plaie de la Justice : Le Long Chemin Après la Tragédie d’Affan Kurniawan
Sous le ciel paisible de Jakarta, la cour du Palais présidentiel a entendu les mots du Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra : la sanction éthique n’est pas la fin ; la voie pénale reste ouverte.
La mort d’Affan Kurniawan, chauffeur de moto-taxi, a bouleversé la conscience collective. Sept membres du Brimob ont comparu devant un tribunal interne. Des sanctions ont été prononcées. Mais chacun sait : la douleur de la perte ne s’apaise pas par l’éthique seule.
“Si des aspects pénaux subsistent, des poursuites judiciaires pourront suivre,” déclara Yusril. Ses mots résonnaient comme une lame fendant le brouillard, ouvrant la route vers une justice plus profonde.
Il rappela que la procédure impose d’abord un jugement éthique. Mais la transparence – observée par la Komnas HAM – n’est pas une fin, mais une fenêtre vers la responsabilité pénale. L’éthique lie l’institution, mais le crime interpelle la conscience de la nation.
LATIN
Ethica, Crimen, et Vulnus Iustitiae: Iter Longum Post Tragoediam Affan Kurniawan
Sub caelo tranquillo Iacartae, atrium Palatii Praesidentialis verba Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra audivit: poena ethica finis non est; via criminalis aperta manet.
Mors Affan Kurniawan, auriga vehiculi mercedarii, conscientiam publicam concussit. Septem milites Brimob ad tribunal internum vocati sunt. Poenae impositae sunt. At populus scit: dolor amissionis sola ethica non sanatur.
“Si adhuc adsint aspectus criminales, processus criminales sequi possunt,” inquit Yusril. Verba eius velut gladius nebulam secabant, viam pandentes ad iustitiam profundiorem.
Meminit iudicium ethicum primum esse faciendum. Sed transparentia – etiam a Komnas HAM observata – non clausura est, sed fenestra ad responsabilitatem criminalem. Ethica institutionem ligat, crimen autem conscientiam nationis provocat.
