Malang – Suciwati, the widow of human rights activist Munir Said Thalib, says she suspects there is a plan to acquit Pollycarpus Budihari Priyanto, a former Garuda pilot serving a 20-year prison term for his role in Munir's death.

Suciwati said her suspicions were first aroused when she received a phone call in late April from an unidentified person claiming to be from the Supreme Court informing her that Pollycarpus had conspired to select the judges that would preside over his case review and plot his acquittal in December of this year.

Pollycarpus had his first case review hearing at Central Jakarta District Court on Tuesday. "Let's just wait and see whether the acquittal will indeed come to reality," Suciwati said during the opening of her souvenir shop, D'Ploso, in Malang, East Java.
