JAKARTA. The Jakarta Prosecutors’ Office on Thursday has finally accepted the case dossier of Jessica Kumala Wongso, who is accused of murdering her friend Wayan Mirna Salihin on Jan. 6.
“After careful examination by prosecutors, the case dossier has been declared complete,” said general crimes assistant of the Jakarta Prosecutors’ Office M. Nasrun, on Thursday, as reported by kompas.com.
With completion of the investigation by police investigators and the prosecutors, the case will soon go to court for trial, while Jessica’s detention period will be extended.
Jessica’s initial 120-day detention period would have expired on Saturday.
Before being declared complete, the case dossier on Jessica had gone back and forth between the Jakarta City Police and the Jakarta Prosecutors’ Office four times because the police had failed to provide strong enough evidence. The police had included information from the Australian Federal Police and testimonies from various experts.
Previously, prosecutors said the evidence that police presented did not indicate who put the poison in Mirna’s coffee.
Jessica has been named the only suspect in the murder of her friend Wayan Mirna Salihin, who died after drinking cyanide-laced coffee on Jan. 6 while at a cafe in Central Jakarta with Jessica and another friend.
