JAKARTA - Former leader of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Rizieq Shihab has not been visited by anyone in the midst of the celebration of Eid al-Fitr 1442 Hijri. Rizieq Shihab is currently being held in National Police-Criminal Investigation Detention Center.

The news that no one has visited Rizieq has been delivered by his lawyer, Azis Yanuar.

"No one has visited yet", Azis told reporters Thursday, May 13.

As for Eid prayer, Rizieq performed it together with the prisoners who then continued the halal bi halal activities. This implementation also went smoothly without any interruptions.

"Eid prayer with the prisoners and halal bi halal in Detention Center", he said.

In the case of the Petamburan crowd, Rizieq is alleged to have sedition to create a crowd in the wedding ceremony of his daughter and Maulid Nabi Muhammad SAW.

Meanwhile, in the case of the Megamendung crowd, Rizieq was charged with violating health quarantine rules by attending an event at Markaz Syariah Agricultural Boarding School, Megamendung, Puncak, Bogor Regency on November 13, 2020.

It was reported earlier that Rizieq Shihab's team of lawyers had applied for a suspension of detention. The reason is related to Eid al-Fitr.

However, presiding judge Khadwanto said he had not yet received a letter of request. "The Tribunal has not received that later after we received our deliberations. It will be announced later", Khadwanto said at a hearing at the East Jakarta District Court on Wednesday, May 5.

The application for a suspension of detention is not just for Rizieq Shihab. The same application was submitted for all defendants in a series of crowd cases and the results of the swab test in UMMI Hospital.
