JAKARTA - As many as 300 personnel from the Jakarta Metro Police were deployed to escort the soldiers from Kodim 0503 JB to remove a banner with Rizieq Shihab's face in the Petamburan area, Central Jakarta.
The deployment of these personnel was at the request of the Kodim 0503 JB, to accompany the task of executing these unlicensed banners and billboards.
"We are backing up activities for the sake of smooth control of banners and billboards that are not in accordance with the applicable regulations," said Head of the West Jakarta Metro Police, Police Commissioner Teuku Arsya Khadafi, quoted by Antara, Friday, November 20.
Arsya said the removal of Rizieq Shihab's banners and billboards was because they were not licensed in public areas, including those belonging to the masses of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI).
The activity of removing banners and billboards was prevented by the FPI Laskar leaving Petamburan III Gang, Central Jakarta, right across from the location of the prosecution which is the Slipi area, West Jakarta.
"The potential for vulnerability is indeed greater resistance, because it is directly adjacent to the FPI headquarters," said West Jakarta Metro Police Head of Intelligence and Security, Kompol Slamet Wibisono.
Slamet said the mass resistance only lasted briefly and without any repression. So, after removing the banners and billboards, members of the West Jakarta Metro Police with soldiers from Kodim 0503 JB continued the activity.
