The 37 Scientific Evidence of Digital Evidence Tampering on CCTV Footage at Olivier Café: The Jessica Kumala Wongso Case (2016), Carried Out by Muhammad Nuh Al-Azhar and Christopher Hariman Rianto, Who were Under the Leadership of the General Crime Director of the Jakarta Metropolitan Police, Krishna Murti, and the Chief of the Jakarta Metropolitan Police, Tito Karnavian.

EVIDENCE 5: THE LOSS OF 96,043 FRAMES FROM CCTV 17 FOOTAGE
Forensic analysis of the discrepancy between the number of frames recorded in the metadata of CCTV 17 footage and the number of frames mentioned in Muhammad Nuh Al-Azhar's report revealed anomalies indicating data manipulation. The video metadata in the report showed 98,750 frames, while the report stated only 2,707 frames. This significant difference raised suspicion that the data had been deliberately altered or deleted.

Muhammad Nuh Al-Azhar's manipulation, which involved removing most of the frames from CCTV 17 footage, had a severe impact on the integrity of the digital evidence. The missing 96,043 frames created a substantial information gap. These removed frames included critical periods where Rangga was involved in preparing coffee or other relevant moments in the case. This action obscured the complete picture of the events and could lead to inaccurate conclusions or misinterpretations of the actual events.

The forensic impact of this manipulation had the potential to severely damage the integrity of the judicial process. By manipulating video data, Muhammad Nuh Al-Azhar had degraded the quality of evidence that could have been used to understand the actual events. This obscured crucial facts that could have helped determine the truth in this case. In other words, this action threatened a fair and transparent judicial process.

The motive behind Muhammad Nuh Al-Azhar's actions to remove most of the frames from CCTV video 17 varied, but the conclusion was that this action aimed to hide information that could have been detrimental to the presented case. Such motives reflected a lack of integrity and professionalism in handling digital evidence.

Overall, forensic analysis showed that the manipulation of data regarding the number of frames in CCTV video 17 was serious and undermined the integrity of digital evidence in this case. This action raised doubts about the reliability of the presented evidence and highlighted the need for strict standards in handling digital evidence in judicial processes. Such manipulation had to be taken seriously, and measures had to be taken to ensure true justice could be achieved within the legal system.

Six fraudulent prosecutors Ardito Muwardi, Shandy Handika, Sugih Carvallo, Hari Wibowo, Wahyu Oktaviandi, and Maylany Wuwung conspired with fellow fraudulent CCTV video manipulator Muhammad Nuh Al-Azhar.
