Kadispenad Ensures TNI AD Pays Attention To The Welfare Of Its Soldiers

Head of the Army Information Service Brigadier General Wahyu Yudha ensured that the Army leadership paid attention to the welfare of soldiers and their families.

This was conveyed by him, following the presence of unscrupulous TNI AD soldiers who were involved in disciplinary and legal violations.

Two unscrupulous TNI AD soldiers became suspects in a series of kidnapping and murder cases of the Head of KCP BRI Cempaka Putih Muhammad Ilham Pradipta. There are allegations of cash in return for his involvement.

Related to this, the Head of Dispenad Brigadier General Wahyu Yudhayana ensured that the incident had nothing to do with the welfare of soldiers.

"There is no welfare problem," he said after joint exercise at the TNI AD Headquarters, Jakarta, Thursday, September 18.

"This is more about each other's self-control, which if you think about it carefully, the loss is more than the profit," he explained.

Furthermore, Brigadier General Wahyu explained, apart from improving good welfare at this time, TNI AD Chief of Staff General Maruli Simanjuntak continued to pay attention to all soldiers and their families.

"Privates who excel, both in internal and external competitions, in addition to paying attention to the capacity of career education, are also related to welfare that can support daily life," said Kadispenad.

"For the sons and daughters who excel, they are given scholarships. This includes how the leadership repairs the soldiers' houses," he continued.

"So, there are no problems with welfare points. Even if there is (a violation), it is not necessarily due to a lack of welfare," said Abituren Akmil 1997.

He added that even if there was an addition, many TNI AD soldiers would carry out activities such as gardening or opening operational economic activities by multiplying farmer groups to MSMEs.

As previously reported, two TNI AD soldiers were involved in a series of kidnapping and murder cases of the Head of KCP BRI Cempaka Putih Muhammad Ilham Pradipta.. They are Serka N and Kopda F who serve in Kopassus.

"The connection with the unit concerned, they come from the Headquarters Detachment in Kopassus," said Danpomdam Jaya, CPM Colonel Donny Agus to reporters, Tuesday, September 16.

"Service N and Kopda F are in status being sought because they did not attend without permission," he said.

In this series of cases, Serka N acts as an intermediary between the suspect JP who is one of the masterminds of the kidnapping and Kopda FH.

The intermediary in question is to offer a job to Kopda FH of course in exchange for some money.

"The role in the person concerned is to find someone to forcibly pick him up," explained Danpomdam Jaya.

However, it was not conveyed in detail about whether or not there was wages or money received by Kopda FH.

Kadispenad emphasized that the leadership of the Indonesian Army never tolerated, protected and covered up its soldiers who violated the law.

"The Indonesian Army has never protected, tolerated such activities. We see all ranks, this is a risk like this, a legal process that must be carried out like this, every soldier must be able to see that. Later it will be an example, meaning I can't follow that," he explained.

He also emphasized that the attitude of the TNI AD leadership was clear, so that this case was processed in accordance with applicable legal provisions.

"The Indonesian Army has never protected, will never cover up any action from soldiers who violate the law, who do not comply with applicable regulations, illegal activities and the like," said the Head of Dispenad.
