JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya has yet to decide on further steps related to the case of allegedly spreading false news about the dream of meeting the Prophet with reported Secretary General Habib Rizieq Shihab Center (HRS Center) Haikal Hassan.

Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Yusri Yunus said that his party was still gathering information from several witnesses in this case.

"Not yet (progress), still investigating. We are still confirming the existing witnesses," Yusri told reporters, Tuesday, January 5.

However, regarding the number of witnesses who have been questioned for information, Yusri did not mention them clearly. He said the investigation team was still gathering information and clues in the case of the alleged spread of this fake news.

"I'll check again," he said.

Previously, Haikal Hassan was investigated as a suspect in the alleged spread of false news about dreams of meeting the Prophet on 28 December.

During the examination, Haikal was asked about 20 questions. But he was surprised when he was asked about evidence of his dream of meeting the Prophet.

I was asked what evidence Haikal Hassan dreamed of the Messenger of Allah. Dreaming of meeting the Prophet, what is the proof? Who can answer the evidence? "He said.

Haikal then told investigators that he did not carry a cell phone when he dreamed of meeting the Prophet.

"The funniest thing is what is the proof of Haikal Hassan dreaming of meeting the Prophet? How is the proof? When I dreamed I didn't have a cellphone," he said.

This case began when Haikal, who is also the spokesperson for the 212 Alumni Brotherhood (PA), was reported by the Secretary General of the Islamic Fighting Forum, Husin Shihab, to Polda Metro Jaya.

Haikal was policed on the suspicion of spreading false news because he conveyed a dream of meeting the Prophet. Haikal's statement about the dream was made during the funeral process of five FPI troops in Megamendung, West Java.
