Murder is an act to eliminate someone’s life in a way that violates the law, or that is not against the law. Murders are usually motivated by various motives, such as politics, jealousy, revenge, self-defense, and so on. As for the case that was entangled due to cyanide satay, the chronology of the perpetrators deliberately mixed type C poison, which is Potassium cyanide (KCN), into the satay seasoning because he was hurt by the person with the initial T, who was later found to be a member of the Yogyakarta Police, Aiptu Tomy.

This cyanide poisoned satay killed an elementary school boy from Sewon, Bantul named Naba Faiz Prasetya (10), not aiptu tony as intended. Based on this, here are some articles that can ensnare the perpetrators:

1. Article 340 of the Criminal Code
   Article 340 of the Criminal Code regulates premeditated murder. The following is the complete content: “Anyone who deliberately with a plan that results in the loss of a person’s life, then his responsibility with a death sentence or life imprisonment or a maximum of twenty years”. According to some people, the perpetrator can be subject to Article 340 of the Criminal Code due to the fact that the perpetrator has been planning this murder since 3 months ago, for example, the perpetrator bought poison which he would later use in his action. The murder that took place departed from the perpetrator’s planning which he had prepared in advance with the estimates he had thought of.
2. Article 338 of the Criminal Code
   Article 338 of the Criminal Code regulates ordinary killings. Here’s the full content: “Whoever deliberately takes the life of another, is threatened with murder with a maximum imprisonment of fifteen years”. This article is considered more appropriate to ensnare the perpetrators because there are doubts in the application of Article 340 of the Criminal Code to the perpetrators. As described in the previous brief chronology, that the victim of this incident was not the intended target of the perpetrator, namely Aiptu Tony and also not the closest person to the target perpetrator such as Aiptu Tony’s family. According to one legal practitioner, this satay satay case would be quicker if it was called an attempted murder. Other legal practitioners are of the opinion that rather than having doubts in the application of Article 340 of the Criminal Code, it is better to firmly argue that the perpetrator can be charged with Article 338 of the Criminal Code.
3. Article 80 paragraph (30) 76c of the Child Protection Law The following is the content of the article: “Anyone who places, allows, commits, orders to commit, or participates in violence against a child, causing the child to die, the perpetrator shall be sentenced to a maximum imprisonment of 15 (fifteen) years and/or a maximum fine of 3,000,000,000.00 (Three billion rupiah)”. This article can also be applied to the perpetrator considering that the victim for his actions is a child who is 10 years old.
