PekanbarU - Pekanbaru City Civil Service Police Unit, Riau Province said it had held surveillance raids to minimize the development of Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) in a number of guesthouses and inns suspected of being places of activity.
The head of the Pekanbaru City Satpol PP, Zulfahmi Adrian, said that as long as the raid was not found, the perpetrators of LGBT were caught. His party only secured a number of couples without a marital status on Sunday morning (30/7).
"If there is, then we will collect data first, then we will provide guidance and reprimand so as not to repeat their actions. Because there is no Regional Regulation yet, we only use Regional Regulation Number 13 of 2021 concerning public order, raids are carried out according to allegations or community reports," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, July 31.
According to him, Pekanbaru City Government strongly supports efforts to prevent LGBT perpetrators from spreading in Bertuah City. Currently, talks about making a regional regulation are being processed at the regional head level.
"We strongly support the prevention of LGBT. Regarding the creation of the LGBT Regional Regulation, it is being discussed at the regional head level. If it has been formed, the Pekanbaru Satpol PP is ready to carry out after the applicable regional regulation," he explained.
He explained that the LGBT case was difficult to reveal because there were no special signs that were visible to the eye when someone was an LGBT. There is also no prohibition that fellow men or fellow women sleep in the same room or live in the same house.
