FPI Reborn Holds Action To Carry Anies As President At Horse Statue, Polda Metro Confirms No Permits

JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya confirmed that the action of mass groups in the name of the reborn FPI in the Horse Statue area, Central Jakarta, did not have a permit.

In fact, the community organization (ormas) is called illegal because it is not registered with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham).

"It doesn't exist, if we don't issue a permit for FPI to be reborn, it doesn't exist," said Head of Public Relations of the Metro Jaya Police, Kombes E. Zulpan, to reporters, Wednesday, June 8.

In addition, the reborn FPI mass organization which during the action carried Anies Baswedan as a presidential candidate for 2024-2029 was also called an illegal organization.

Based on the results of coordination with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, it was stated that the FPI reborn mass organization was not registered.

"It (FPI reborn) is not registered with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, it is not registered as a mass organization," said Zulpan.

However, when asked about the follow-up to the action of the reborn FPI, Zulpan could not comment much. The reason is that the matter is still being coordinated with related parties.

"Later, if that is the case, we will still explore it," said Zulpan.
