The Jakarta Police have named Islam Defenders Front (FPI) leader Rizieq Shihab and five other people suspects for holding crowd-pulling events in his house and at the group’s headquarters in Petamburan, Central Jakarta, in breach of COVID-19 health protocol last month.
In preparing measures to secure the simultaneous elections during the COVID-19 emergency, the National Police have determined that 63 regions were either "vulnerable" or "extremely vulnerable" to health protocol violations.
National Police chief Gen. Idham Azis appointed former East Java Police chief Insp. Gen M. Fadil Imran as the new Jakarta Police chief on Monday, the same day as the removal of his predecessor Insp. Gen. Nana Sudjana from his position amid a brouhaha centering on the mass gatherings held by the Islam Defenders Front (FPI) over the weekend.
From Oct. 6 to 8, the commission received and collected some 1,900 photos and videos taken at various locations reportedly showing police brutality against students, activists, workers, journalists and residents who happened to be at the protest sites.
