Stories Of Repressive Treatment Of Ananda Badudu To Appreciation Of Public Services For The Police

JAKARTA - The work of the police apparatus often intersects with the community. The pros and cons of police officers who are met in the field are closely related to the image of the Indonesian police as a whole. It is not surprising that the phrases "police are hated but missed" or "loved but hated" can be found in everyday life.

On Thursday, July 16, VOI's discussion with friends "Why Do We Hate Police?" aired on the voidotid YouTube channel. The main focus of the VOI discussion this time is the repressive actions of members of the Indonesian police that are still felt by the public, appreciation for the improvement of Polri's public services, and the latest news about police reform that has been going on since 2000.

In the VOI discussion moderated by one of the VOI teams, Yolanda Cenderakasih, also attended the National Police Public Relations Division Karopenmas, Brigadier General Pol Awi Setiyono. In addition, names outside the police force are Poengky Indarti (Commissioner of the National Police Commission), Nasir Djamil (Member of Commission III of the Indonesian Parliament), and Anggara (Institute for Criminal Justice Reform).

The discussion process became even more interesting when Ananda Badudu, a musician who is active in various social movements, also recounted his story when he was taken to Polda Metro Jaya in September 2019 via tele-talk. He also admitted that he had received repressive treatment from members of the police on duty and the procedures were not in accordance with what they should have been.
