Marwoto Komar had his conviction for criminal negligence quashed by an Indonesian court, in a shock decision made public last week.
Captain Marwoto had been sentenced to two years in prison in April after a court heard evidence he ignored 15 automated warnings and brought his plane into land too fast and from a much greater height than normal.
Yogyakarta’s High Court overturned the decision, finding Captain Marwoto’s action of negligence was not ”legally and convincingly proven”, clearing the way for him to return to work.
