JAKARTA - The Polda Metro Jaya claims that the Arjuna Wiwaha Horse Statue area and its surroundings have been sterile from the 212 Reunion mass. Although, this morning 500 people tried to enter the area.

"Until noon today, no community element groups have entered or held a reunion gathering at the Horse Statue," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes E. Zulpan to reporters, Thursday, December 2.

However, based on police monitoring at 10.00 WIB there were several community groups who wanted to enter the Horse Statue area. The number reached 500 people.

They also had time to gather around Jalan Wahid Hasyim. However, the joint TNI-Polri team moved quickly and urged them not to force themselves to participate in these activities.

The masses were asked to disperse because otherwise there would be criminal sanctions that would be applied. What's more, it's still the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Thank God, the people can understand and after that they disbanded," said Zulpan.

On that basis, Zulpan emphasized that the Jakarta area has remained conducive so far. However, monitoring is still ongoing.

"The point is that until this afternoon the Greater Jakarta area, the jurisdiction of the Polda Metro Jaya, the situation is under control," said Zulpan.
