The Case Of The Rizieq Crowd In Bogor, Ridwan Kamil Will Be Examined By The Police Again

JAKARTA - The joint police team has scheduled another examination of West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil to be examined as a witness in a case of alleged violation of the health protocol (prokes) in Megamendung, Bogor.

Head of Public Relations Division of the National Police, Inspector General Argo Yuwono, said that investigators had scheduled an examination of Ridwan Kamil next week. The investigator has sent a summons for examination.

"On Tuesday, December 15, 2020, we will conduct a witness examination against the Governor of West Java," Argo told reporters, Friday, December 4.

The investigation will not take place at the Police Criminal Investigation Unit. Investigators decided to examine Kang Emil at the West Java Police.

"Examination at the West Java Regional Police. That is the authority of the investigator," he said

Besides that, the investigators also scheduled several other witnesses. Among others, Bogor Regent Ade Yasin and two experts related to the investigation of the case.

"The Regent of Bogor, an epidemiologist and a health law expert," said Argo.

Previously, Ridwan Kamil was questioned at Bareskrim Polri on 20 November. Approximately 7 hours he was questioned by the investigation team by asking 29 questions.

The root of the question of the investigation was because the crowd occurred when Rizieq attended the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the pesantren. His arrival attracted the attention of the public, but many did not apply health protocols by not wearing masks.
