Joining Rehabilitation, One Of The Drug Convicts At Salemba Rutan Admits His Body Feels Comfortable And Healthy
JAKARTA - A total of 310 inmates (prisoners) or correctional inmates (WBP) are participating in drug medical rehabilitation at the Class 1A Detention Center (Rutan) in Central Jakarta. The rehabilitation will be carried out from Friday, January 28 to June, next.
According to the confession of Dony (36), one of the convicts in narcotics cases, he has been following narcotics rehabilitation for about two weeks. The impact Dony felt after attending rehab was quite good for him.
"I immediately registered at the clinic, registered myself. As a result, my body is somewhat healthier, more comfortable since rehab. If there is no dependency, I have forgotten it here," he told VOI at the Class 1A Rutan, Central Jakarta, Monday 14 February.
Dony admitted that he had been a user of methamphetamine for one year.
"The effect is that I don't sleep. I only use [shabu] for work. Apart from that, I don't have any more. (before the police arrested) I bought methamphetamine from a friend," he said.
Dony was sentenced to a narcotics case for 5 years and 6 months. He was arrested in the Kebon Blank area, Kemayoran Gempol, by the Central Jakarta Metro Police Satnarkoba.
"He has been in detention for 1 year, he has only been in rehab for 2 weeks. There are many activities, there are medicines that are given. There are sports activities and all kinds of things," he said.
Dony said, the rehabilitation activity was followed by him since the dawn prayer on Monday to Friday. After the Fajr prayer, the rehab participants immediately did morning exercise, ate together and others.
The man with two children also hopes that the Head of the Class 1 Central Jakarta Rutan will pay more attention to the rehabilitation residents.
"Hopefully the residents of rehab will pay more attention to it. For friends outside (the detention center) stay away from drugs because the effects are like this," said the resident of Kemayoran.
Head of the Central Jakarta Class 1A Detention Center (Karutan) Fonika Affandi said that his party is targeting 600 inmates to participate in rehabilitation in this one year together with the DKI Jakarta BNNP.
"What is certain is that 310 inmates will be medically rehabilitated. The point is we make them so that they can be limited from drug abuse," he said.
The category of rehabilitation carried out is from moderate to minimum. Fonika said that some of the rehab participants used methamphetamine, drugs, marijuana and gorilla tobacco.
"What is clear is that (the rehab participants) are active users. We hope that the inmates undergoing medical rehabilitation must be 100 percent successful," he said.
