JAKARTA - The East Raya Brotherhood (PETIR) community organization officially stated a firm stance to fully respect the legal process currently underway at the Polda Metro Jaya regarding the clashes in Kalibata, South Jakarta, which recently occurred.
In the midst of the heated issue on social media, this organization calls on all its members to remain one command, maintain calm, and not be provoked by the wild narratives circulating.
The General Chair of the East Raya Brotherhood (PETIR), E. Alex Kadju, issued a firm instruction to all members at all levels not to be provoked by emotions by issues or conversations that cannot be accounted for on social media.
Alex emphasized that a reactive response would actually harm the common interest. He ensured that the handling of the case had been taken seriously by the police and directly escorted by the intelligence ranks of the Polda Metro Jaya.

This issue has been handled seriously. Everything that has happened has been God's way and destiny, so I ask all parties to remain calm and solid," said Alex Kadju in an official statement received by VOI, Saturday night, December 13.

The crucial factor that was considered to have succeeded in dampening the potential for mass unrest in this case was the presence of Brigadier General Audie Latuheru.
For the extended family of the people of East Indonesia, Audie is not only seen as a law enforcement officer, but also as a "big brother" figure and a representation of the pride of the local people.
West Jakarta Youth Figure, Umar Abdul Aziz, revealed that the presence of Brigadier General Audie was a guarantee for them not to take to the streets to demonstrate. Full trust in the investigation process was given because of the figure of Brigadier General Audie Latuheru.
"We have great respect for the legal process that has been handled by the police. More than that, we respect the local son, our brother, Brigadier General Audie Latuheru. He is the original son of the East," said Umar.
According to Umar, the presence of Brigadier General Audie is very vital in maintaining the psychological stability of the masses who are demanding justice for the alleged murder case.
"His presence is important for the East Raya Brotherhood not to take any demonstration actions and to entrust the investigators to uncover this case," he continued.
With the guarantee of transparency of the legal process and the presence of a unifying figure such as Brigadier General Audie Latuheru, PETIR hopes that this case can be revealed immediately in the open without triggering an emotional spill on the streets that has the potential to disrupt public order.
