After being asked for information, Subakti Syukur did not talk much about what the Komnas HAM team asked. He explained about the technical problems experienced by surveillance cameras or CCTV on the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road during the shooting incident.

He said, there were 23 CCTV cameras on the toll road that did not record images due to technical problems. Meanwhile, CCTV at KM 43 to KM 72 experienced technical problems in the form of being unable to transmit data and being unable to record events for several hours due to weather problems.

Even so, he ensured that there was record keeping according to the procedures of a public company that could be accounted for in connection with the disturbance. In addition, he emphasized that this CCTV was not totally damaged, as has been mentioned by many parties.

"The CCTV is still functioning, but the data transmission has been interrupted. Only 24 CCTVs from KM 49 to 72. That is only the one in the lane. At the gate, and others, previously there were 23 cameras," he said at the Komnas HAM office after undergoing examination .

Meanwhile, the Regional Police Chief, Inspector General Fadil Imran, said that his party was trying to present facts and not claims related to the shooting incident of the army which was said to have guarded Rizieq. He emphasized that he did not want to build a narrative related to the events that killed the six people.

"Polda Metro Jaya will be transparent and provide space to Komnas HAM so that the results of this investigation are accountable in the eyes of the public," he said.

"And I obey the law today, I was called I came. I came alone, not accompanied by many people," he added.

After questioning a number of parties, Komnas HAM Commissioner Beka Ulung Hapsara then spoke up about the discovery of new evidence in the form of projectiles related to the shooting incident on the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road. He confirmed that his team got the evidence at the scene of the incident or around KM 50.

"(Examples of evidence, red) projectiles and so on," said Beka.

In addition to mentioning finding evidence, the results of the investigation by the Head of Metro Jaya Police, Inspector General Fadil Imran also provided various information and related data. Fadil, said Beka, also explained what steps the police had taken after the shooting of the six FPI soldiers.

Beka said that in the future, Komnas HAM would schedule an examination of the Head of the Polda Metro Jaya Police and a number of police officers. Meanwhile, Komnas HAM Chairman Ahmad Taufan Damanik said that his party would plan to summon FPI members for questioning.

Information from various parties was deemed important. So that not only the police will be summoned but also parties from the mass organization will be summoned immediately.

The Executive Director of the Setara Institute, Ismail Hasani, said that currently Komnas HAM has a job to make light on the shooting case that took place in the early hours of the morning. There are things that he thinks need to be further investigated, namely the existing situation that makes the police have to pull the trigger of their rifles.

"The most important thing is the situation in the vehicle when the security forces feel attacked. The degree of the threat is like what. I think it needs to be found because that's where the product of justification or violation can be concluded as to what level of threat was concluded by the police," said Ismail when contacted by VOI.

In addition, Komnas HAM is deemed necessary to summon a number of parties related to this case. Not only that, they are also deemed necessary to summon expert witnesses such as forensic experts and continue with reconstruction to find out whether there is any difference from what was done by the police.

"But of course this is done after Komnas HAM has sufficient evidence or sufficient case construction. So that it can be concluded," he said.

"I hope Komnas HAM can become an alternative report that sheds light on this incident," he concluded.
