In this regard, a member of the RPD Commission III of the PKB faction, Luqman Hakim, fully supports the steps taken by the police to enforce the law indiscriminately in order to create justice and a sense of security for the people.
“If there are parties that are fighting against the police who are enforcing the law and this resistance is endangering the safety of the life of the police, then according to the procedure, the police must take firm measures to bring the situation under control.” he told reporters on Monday (7/12/2020).
Luqman explained that if the police did not have the courage to act decisively, so that there were police officers who became victims, this would cause unrest in the community. If the police alone cannot protect themselves, who will people seek protection from?
“The decisive action by the police which resulted in the death of 6 bodyguards of Muhammad Rizieq Shihab, I believe was carried out in accordance with the procedures and aims to protect the safety of the lives of the police officers from attacks with firearms and sharp weapons. I believe that armed attacks on the state apparatus are acts of terrorism, “he said.

And in order not to be a victim again, Luqman reminded Habib Rizieq to be cooperative and abide by the law that is valid in this country. There is absolutely no benefit to sacrificing people’s lives, much less against the law. Learn from the fourth RI KH president. Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur) who is willing to resign as president to avoid the bloodshed of the people.
“If Muhammad Rizieq Shihab continues to fight the law, especially through violence, I fully support the firm stance of the Police and TNI to take the necessary measures to ensure respect for law and civil order and to guarantee the sense of security of the community, “he said.
The PKB politician also asked the police to investigate the origin of various firearms used by followers of Muhammad Rizieq Shihab. This investigation is important so that the parties involved in supporting the attacks on the state apparatus can be known and arrested.
“I suspect that there are certain parties trying to mount the Muhammad Rizieq Shihab group with the aim of creating socio-political chaos, horizontal conflicts and destroying the unity and integrity of the Republic of Indonesia. Of course this must be avoided!”, He concluded.
