VIDEO: Riau University Chancellor Withdraws Police Report For Students

JAKARTA - The public was shocked by the news that a Chancellor of Universitar Riau, Sri Indarti, reported her student, Khariq Anhar, regarding criticism of the Single Lecture Money. Initially, Khariq together with the Plaintiff Student Alliance made an invitation open to the Chancellor of Unri and his students regarding the UKT policy and Institution Development Contribution on March 4.

However, the invitation was ignored by the chancellor and led to the making of a video of Khoriq's action and his friends placing the alma mater at Riau University. They also pinned the name of an education broker to the Chancellor of Sri Indarti while displaying her photo in the video. In the video there were 4 people involved, but only the name Khariq was reported. Khariq admitted that the purpose of the video was to criticize campus policies.

Unfortunately, the action resulted in the report of defamation made by the Chancellor to his students on March 15. However, the rectorate admitted that the report was filed for the Plaintiff Student Alliance account which has caused misinformation among the public. And after knowing that the owner of the account is a student,

Sri Indarti also coordinated with the Riau Police and withdrew her report. Sri admitted that she would not limit criticism and would still provide space for students' aspirations, especially regarding the policy of the single tuition fee. Watch the video below.
