jpnn.com, JAKARTA – The president of the SETARA Institute, Hendardi, strongly condemns the perpetrators of the attack on the Ciracas Police Headquarters on Saturday morning (8/29). According to the chronology and various testimonies from the community, the target of the attack on a group of rioters would have been identified as members of the TNI.

One hundred more people on motorcycles set cars and motorcycles on fire and mistreated the agents who were on duty at the Police Headquarters. Before attacking the Ciracas Police Headquarters, the same gang carried out the destruction of Pasar Rebo.

“They hunt down and wound civilians. The mob also carried out raids, vandalized vehicles accompanied by beatings of residents using the road in Jalan Raya Bogor from the direction of Cibubur before the Police Headquarters, “Hendardi said in his press release on Saturday.

Furthermore, Hendardi firmly stated that he strongly condemned the brutal acts that were exhibited by various people. Their behavior constitutes an outrage against the state security apparatus and the civilian population.

According to him, the manifestation of acts against the law and taking the law into one’s own hands clearly disturbs the social order in a democratic country and the rule of law. They also harm and threaten the security of society, especially civilians.

“If it is true that TNI personnel are involved in this display of violence, then the repetition of violent incidents demonstrated by various TNI personnel is one of them because TNI has enjoyed privileges and privileges for too long. (privileges) of the law because TNI members are not subject to general justice, “Hendardi said.

According to Hendardi, the reform of the TNIs also appears to advance only at a part of the structural level, but does not affect the cultural and behavioral dimensions of the members. The stalemate in TNI reform has rendered TNI members immune and continues to feel supreme to become class 1 citizens.

“The savagery that was on display on 8/28/2020 has clearly illustrated the failure of TNI reform,” said Hendardi.
