Kapolda Metro Inspector General Fadil Imran: Anyone Who Disturbs The Safety Of People's Souls, I Act Decisively

JAKARTA - The Head of Metro Jaya Regional Police, Inspector General Fadil Imran, emphasized that he would take firm action against anyone who took action or activity that could endanger the safety of the community regarding the spread of COVID-19. This is because the Jakarta area is still the highest contributor to positive COVID-19 cases.

"So whoever will interfere with the safety of my people's souls will take firm legal action. I repeat, anyone who will interfere with the safety of my community's soul will carry out strict law enforcement," said Inspector General Fadil to reporters, Friday, November 20.

Inspector General Fadil, who was just appointed as Kapolda Metro Jaya, confirmed that he would carry out a preventive strike scheme. This means that all forms of violation of the health protocol will be dealt with firmly.

"So, my law enforcement should precede strict prevention. We all know that Nakarta is currently not safe from COVID-19," he said.

The tough law enforcement scheme regarding health protocol violations is not without reason. If you refer to the statistical data on the transmission of COVID-19, Jakarta has the largest percentage in Java.

"59 percent of COVID-19 cases occurred on the island of Java and the largest number that was confirmed positive was DKI Jakarta. So there is a basis," said Inspector General Fadil.

In addition, Jakarta also has a COVID-19 transmission rate above 1. The transmission of COVID-19 in the capital is said to be still very high.

"Therefore, based on this data, we will act strictly against anyone who violates the health protocol," he said.
