Jakarta, CNN Indonesia — The family of Gamma Rizkynata Oktafandy, the teenager killed by a police officer in Semarang, Jawa Tengah, is considering taking legal action against Kombes Pol Irwan, who was recently transferred from his position as the head of Semarang’s Police Resort to the Police Education and Training Center (STIK) in Jakarta.

Irwan has been embroiled in controversy since the incident in November, where a police officer, Aipda Robig Zainudin, shot and killed Gamma during a confrontation. Irwan, as the then-head of Semarang’s Police Resort, issued a statement claiming that Robig had fired in self-defense after being threatened with a sharp weapon during an attempt to disperse a street brawl.

However, Irwan’s version of events has been disputed. The family of Gamma, represented by Zaenal Abidin ‘Petir’, has questioned Irwan’s account, arguing that the officer’s actions were not justified. They have since demanded that Irwan be removed from his position, citing a lack of professionalism and potential corruption of the investigation.

The family is now considering filing a complaint against Irwan with the Police Professional Ethics Commission (Propam) at the National Police Headquarters (Mabes Polri). "We’re still gathering information from experts to confirm if Irwan’s statements can indeed be reported," said Subambang, the family’s spokesperson and Gamma’s grandfather. "We need to be careful not to make any mistakes."

The family’s lawyer, Zaenal, has welcomed Irwan’s transfer but has also called for a review of the former officer’s actions. "Polri should evaluate Irwan’s decision to try and ‘protect’ Robig after he fatally shot Gamma and his friends," he said. Zaenal also criticized Irwan’s visit to Gamma’s family shortly after the teenager’s death, suggesting it was an attempt to hush up the matter.

The family maintains that Irwan should not be allowed to hold a similar position in the future. "It’s only right that he’s no longer the head of Semarang’s Police Resort," said Zaenal. "But we’ll still report him to Propam for not conducting a transparent investigation into Gamma’s case."

However, the public relations department of the Jawa Tengah Police has denied that Irwan’s transfer is a result of the incident. Kombes Artanto, the department’s head, stated that the transfer is a routine rotation within the police force.

The officer who shot Gamma, Aipda Robig Zainudin, has been dismissed from the police force and is currently facing legal charges for murder and assault causing death, as filed by Gamma’s family. The investigation into the case is ongoing.

In a recent hearing with the DPR’s Commission III, Irwan expressed his condolences to Gamma’s family and the people of Semarang, stating that he was prepared to face any consequences for his actions. However, his apology has done little to appease the family, who continue to seek justice for Gamma’s death.
