Parking Manager Must Compensate Lost Vehicle |
The parking
manager in Medan City was asked to be responsible for the loss of vehicles in
the official parking lot. The community as the aggrieved party, can make a
lawsuit if the parking manager does not want to replace the loss.
"The Supreme Court's verdict regarding
the loss of vehicles must be replaced by parking managers, has become
jurisprudence and should be followed by parking managers everywhere," said
Medan Legal Aid Institute (LBH) Surya Adinata, Monday (31/7).
Surya explained, the emergence of this MA
verdict because there is a complaint from the public against the parking
manager who is not responsible for the loss of vehicles in the parking lot they
manage. "Actually this verdict since 2010. So when people who feel the
loss of a vehicle, can use this decision to report the company or the parking
manager," he said.
It hopes this passage, no longer stubborn
parking businessmen / managers, or irresponsible reasoning. "Whatever the
story, when they have cited the retribution, there arise rights and obligations
there, and they must take responsibility for the lost vehicle," he said.
The presence of this Supreme Court decision,
according to him, certainly makes a comfortable impression for the community.
Because all this time, in the event of loss of vehicles in the official parking
lot, the manager argued that it was not their responsibility.
"But not
the parking lot on the side of the road, but the managers of the official
parking location because of the location like plaza, mall, hotel and restaurant,
our vehicle is not that easy to go in and out, unbeknownst to the parking
manager," he said.
Head of the Regional Tax and Retribution
Agency (BP2RD) Medan Zulkarnain said it is ready to carry out socialization
efforts to all authorized parking businessers under the auspices of BP2RD.
"If there has been an official notice from the government, it will be
socialized," he said.
He previously said the ruling applies to all
parties. That is, all parking managers must comply with applicable laws and
regulations. "Whatever it is we must all submit and apply the existing
positive law.More importantly, we should be able to implement a standard of
parking services that are safe and comfortable for the community," he
said.
Head of Law
Secretariat Medan Sulaiman Harahap claimed not to know about the decision of
the Supreme Court. However, according to him, the decision can be a reference
for related stakeholders to be implemented and implemented in the field.
"I have not received a copy, so I can not comment further, but this
decision is valid throughout Indonesia, and especially in Medan," he said.
