National Police Headquarters Officially Stops The Case Of The Attack Of The 6 FPI Troops
JAKARTA - The Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police has officially stopped investigating the case of the alleged attack by the six members of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI).

The termination of this case, said Argo, refers to Article 109 of the Criminal Procedure Code. This article contains the question of terminating the investigation because the suspect has passed away.
Meanwhile, for the case of unlawful killing, Argo said that there was already a Police Report (LP) for the basis of the investigation. Currently, three Regional Police Metro Jaya police have the status of being reported according to the recommendation of Komnas HAM (The Indonesian National Human Rights Commission).
"Komnas HAM recommendations and findings, we have carried out. Currently, it is still in process", he said.
The Police Criminal Investigation Agency named 6 Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) troops as suspects in the case of assaulting members of the National Police during the clash on the Jakarta-Cikampek KM 50 toll road.

Andi then explained a little about the suspect's determination by using Article 170 of the Criminal Code. In fact, the 6 FPI Troops had died.
