KENDARI - Kendari City Police (Polresta), Southeast Sulawesi (Sultra) has intensified surveillance and patrols in schools to prevent brawls between students. Kendari Police Chief Kombes Pol Muhammad Eka Fathurrahman said the patrol was carried out because in recent days there have been rampant inter-student brawls in Kendari City. We from Kendari Police, related to the many juvenile delinquency levels leading to crimes committed by teenagers, children school. We are intensifying patrols to schools, "he said. Before conducting patrols to schools, continued Kombes Pol Muhammad Eka Fathurrahman, his party had tried to prevent the brawl by making anti-battle declarations and violence against students/SMP/SMA/SMK/MA in the city of Kendari.. We have taken several steps, the first we invite the Kendari City Government, then from the school to carry out activities such as declarations at the Kendari Mayor's Office, which "We made a declaration a few months ago," he explained. The declaration, then followed up by socializing the results of the declaration within the school environment carried out by the Bhabinkamtibmas of the Kendari Police Binmas Unit. However, said the former Director of Drug Investigation at the Southeast Sulawesi Police, the declaration has not been maximized. Because, in the last few days, dozens of high school students have gathered and are ready to attack other schools. In fact, some of them were arrested for carrying sharp weapons. "However, this activity is not very optimal, considering that a few days ago there were still activities of teenagers who were trying to gather, mobilizing their friends to carry out attacks on other schools. We found yesterday around 40 people, already getting ready around the Lakidende Stadium, we secured, we confiscated several sharp weapons," he explained. For this reason, Kendari Police again carried out patrols in several schools that are expected to have the potential to do brawls. "We, every time children come home from school, carry out patrol activities in several places that are of concern, where schools that often do brawls, we do patrols," he said.

Because, he said, the students often continued the action the brawl at night.

"Then, we also carry out night patrols, considering that not only did these children's school days carry out attacking activities, at night they often gather at places where something they had prepared would attack other groups of young people, we had anticipated it. Several nights when we found patrols, we took them to the office, we gave a warning, we would call their parents not to repeat that again," he said. He said that the patrol would continue to be carried out to eliminate any form of juvenile delinquency in the city of Lulo.
