JAYAPURA - Acting Regent of Nduga, Papua, Badminton Gwijangge, said that the case of the SusiAir pilot hostage-taking that occurred in his area was starting to disrupt services to the community.

As a result of Susi Air's pilot hostage-taking, health services and community needs began to be disrupted.

"The Nduga Regional Government is trying its best to help the release of hostages so that activities can return to normal," said AJ. Gwijangge as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 3.

Acting Regent said service access to areas is currently starting to be affected, including logistics mobilization.

If this condition continues, it is feared that people will experience hunger and fall ill.

"All parties must help so that the pilot is immediately released because if it drags on, the community itself will become victims," said Badminton Gwijangge.

He could not hold back if the TNI-Polri carried out operations to free the hostages, so it is hoped that all parties will help free the hostages who work as pilots.

"I hope that Susi Air pilots can be released soon so that no more residents will become victims because if they don't, then when there is a gun battle between the security forces and the OPM, it is possible that the community will become victims," said Badminton Gwijangge.

The KKB led by Egianus Kogoya, since February 7, has been holding Pilot Philip of New Zealand and set fire to the plane he was driving shortly after arriving at Paro Airport.
