Tulungagung Satpol Disbands Celebration Showing Percil Comedy Entertainment

TULUNGAGUNG - The Satpol PP of Tulugagung Regency has disbanded a celebration activity for residents of Selorejo Village, Ngunut District, Tulungagung which featured comedic entertainment with the guest star of the famous East Java comedian, "Percil", although the show only started on Saturday, December 25 night.

The owner of the celebration, initials SDU, was then summoned for questioning by civil servant investigators at the Tulungagung Satpol PP office, Monday, December 27.

"Our investigations or examinations are limited to enforcing local regulations without a sanction mechanism. Our scope is only up to a written warning," said the Head of Regional Regulation Enforcement and Tulungagung Satpol PP Perbup, Artista Nindya Putra, quoted by Antara.

According to him, the mechanism for sanctions against violators of Perbup or Perda is not regulated in the regional government regulatory system. The sanction mechanism in the same case is in the Outbreak Law, whose enforcement is in the hands of the police and the prosecutor's office.

"Therefore, the follow-up to this case, from a criminal or civil perspective, is the domain of the police," he said.

It was explained, in Tulungagung's Perbup No. 57, it only stipulates the sanction of individuals caught by judicial operations amounting to Rp. 25 thousand. Meanwhile, the sanction for the place of business is Rp. 100,000 to Rp. 500 thousand.

From the examination carried out, SDU admitted that he did not know if his act of inviting comedians was wrong.

In addition, SDU also violated the proposed permit. The permit for the circumcision ceremony did not mention any campursari entertainment that invited the comedian Percil.

"The proposed permit does not state the existence of entertainment, only for the circumcision celebration," said Artista Nindya.

Previously, the celebration with comedian Cak Percil was dismissed by the Tulungagung Covid-19 Handling Acceleration Task Force (STPPC), Saturday, December 25, at around 20.45 WIB.

In the celebration with the entertainment of campursari and comedians, there was a crowd of hundreds of people.

There is a large stage set up for the campursari performance, and it closes the impact road from the Selorejo gas station towards Samir Village, for almost a kilometer.
