The Indonesian Military (TNI) has confirmed the cancellation of the 212 reunion rally as stipulated in a statement issued by the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI), Jakarta Military Command (Kodam) Jaya commander Maj. Gen. Dudung Abdurachman has said.
The reunion’s cancellation was also supported by a circular from Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan citing Regional Law No. 88/2020 on large-scale social restrictions (PSBB).
Dudung said the TNI and the National Police were ready to deploy their personnel if any attempt was made to stage the reunion.
“If they [FPI] violate the agreement, we will take strict action against them,” Dudung said as quoted by kompas.com on Wednesday.
Previously, the FPI had announced that the reunion, which was originally scheduled to take place at the National Monument in Central Jakarta on Dec. 2, had been canceled as the monument management had refused permission.
