"One of the things discussed earlier was the detonation in Garut, where I have conveyed that the procedures for the detonation have been carried out in accordance with the SOP," Agus said as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, May 26.
Agus explained that the process of destroying ammunition had gone through a number of stages and its implementation was reported from the ammunition user unit, Slog Kodam, Slog TNI to the Ministry of Defense (Kemhan).
"Then when the procedure has arrived at the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Defense will go to the Slog TNI and get to the unit assigned to blow up the large and small caliber munitions and the detonators that have been expired are already prepared," he said.

Agus also emphasized that based on the SOP, no civilians were involved in the exercise of expired ammunition.
"Actually, we don't involve civilians in destroying the explosives that have been expired," he said.
Agus also said that ammunition that had expired was generally more prone to explosions.
"Usually, when a munisist or detonator is expired, he is sensitive, sensitive to movement, friction, then also to light, so it is very easy to cause detonation," said Agus.
