Jakarta –
The coordinating minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Mahfud Md, claimed to have received information about young people who were being trained to become terrorists. Young people, Mahfud said, were specially trained to terrorize important people.
This was conveyed by Mahfud in the ‘Presentation of evaluation results and policy recommendations of ministries / institutions in the field of national unity’ that took place on Wednesday (12/16). Mahfud initially spoke about the radicalism hitting Indonesia.
“Radicalism is in our place if there are three radicalisms. One, intolerance, yes, you don’t like it. So if there are different, I don’t want to join with different people. Then the second, terror. Radicalism is in the form of terror, “Mahfud was quoted as saying in a video broadcast on YouTube channel Kemenko Polhukam on Thursday (12/17/2020).
Mahfud then revealed the information he obtained about the young terrorist’s movement. He even admitted receiving photos from the special training.
“I even got information that there was a group of young people who were trained in a special place to terrorize VVIP (very very important person). I also have a photo of the exercise, “he said.
However, Mahfud did not specify which VVIP was the target of the terror.
“Now an ideology like this is the radicalism that leads to hitting that ideology, that is, intolerance. What’s worse than that is the terrors due to jihadism, an incorrect understanding of jihad,” Mahfud said.
Furthermore, Mahfud said that, in addition to intolerance and terror, radicalism also spreads in Indonesia through speech. The speech, he said, entered from educational institutions to government institutions.
“Because, for example, now there are so many, for example, mosques that are occupied by a group. First, follow the makmum, then if the imam is empty of prayers, then suddenly continue to do studies, it continues to be more and more intense. He yearns to dominate, then he teaches in That’s radical. That’s a lot, “he said.
