JAKARTA - The North Jakarta Regional Police (Satpol PP Jakut) together with a joint team seized hundreds of bottles of liquor (miras) from traders in the Penjaringan area on Friday (20/2) evening.

"They still sell liquor during the month of Ramadan 1447 Hijriah and therefore we are disciplined. We confiscated 132 bottles of liquor from liquor stores and herbal shops," said Head of North Jakarta Satpol PP Budhy Novian in Jakarta, Saturday.

According to him, the liquor brought by the officers from the warung that sold the illegal goods was 48 bottles of Rajawali, 24 bottles of alcohol, 8 bottles of Kuda Mas, two bottles of Intisari, 17 bottles of ginseng wine. Then nine bottles of AO, 12 bottles of Green Wine and 12 bottles of King Lion.

"The total number of bottles of liquor seized is 132 bottles," he said.

He said that this raid on illegal alcoholic beverages was in order to increase supervision during Ramadan, as well as enforce Regional Regulation number 8 of 2007 concerning Public Order.

He said that in addition to enforcing local regulations, this activity is also in order to anticipate fights and other social insecurity which are often triggered by alcoholic beverages.

"All the bottles of alcoholic beverages that we confiscated were taken to the office for further action," he said.

He said that this liquor supervision (Miras) will continue to be carried out and the implementation will start from the level of the village, district to the city throughout the month of Ramadan.

"Ramadan is indeed a momentum for this alcohol supervision to be carried out optimally so that the atmosphere becomes safer and more comfortable," he said.

His party will continue to move and carry out random supervision and if there are reports from residents, it will be immediately followed up.

"Sub-district officers are also moving and the North Jakarta City Satpol PP is also moving to maintain public order," he said.
