Investigators in the interrogation investigated the conversation between Anies Baswedan and Rizieq Shihab. Because there has been no explanation of the contents of Anies and Rizieq's conversation.

"Colleagues all know that when the governor of DKI started HRS coming to his residence at night, colleagues asked, there was no statement right. That's where investigators also want to know what is certain, they were asked that," said Karo Penmas, Police Division, Brig. Awi Setiyono to reporters, Wednesday, November 18.

In addition, in the process of examination, investigators also dig about the Governor Regulation (Pergub) in handling COVID-19. Anies was asked to explain about the measures regulated in the regulation.

"What is clear is that the governor issuing the Pergub already knows what the crowd was doing. You understand what investigators have dug up," he said.

Previously, Polda Metro Jaya revealed the reasons behind the examination of witnesses who came from elements of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government, including Anies Baswedan. The investigation team wants to confirm the status of DKI Jakarta during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"One is to be able to explain the current status of DKI. If the status of DKI is currently in a PSBB state, then there are other provisions. Another provision is in the form of austerity," said Director of General Criminal Investigation of Polda Metro Jaya, Kombes Tubagus Ade Hidayat to reporters, Tuesday, 17 November.

Investigators dig up information regarding the definition of quarantine in large-scale social restrictions (PSBB). The DKI Provincial Government is currently implementing a transitional PSBB policy.

Tubagus said that the definition of quarantine in the PSBB policy has various types. Therefore this must be ensured as a legal basis in the investigation process.

"The quarantine takes various forms, there is a house quarantine, there is a hospital quarantine, there is an area where there is a PSBB," he said.

"The question is to government officials. What are the provisions? Is there anything that was not violated from the event? If there is, it means that there has been a crime," continued Tubagus.

If a violation is found from the examination, continued Tubagus, the investigator will decide to increase the status of the pekara to investigation.

"If there is a crime then a case title will be carried out to determine whether or not a crime is present, then it will be raised to the investigation process," he said.
