– A panel of judges at Semarang Court sentenced the shipmaster of Senopati Nusantara to 2.3 years behind bars on Monday. This was shorter than the three years sought by prosecutors, according to a report by the Seputar Indonesia daily, but judges said Wiratno Tjendanawasih had no criminal records before the Senopati accident. “That shortens his term in jail,” a judge said. Other factors include his co-operation with investigators and good behaviour in court.
