JAKARTA Memories of today, nine years ago, March 3, 2015, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) expressed its support for the Indonesian government regarding the death penalty for drug businessmen. MUI has no problem with the death penalty which will later be handed down to producers, dealers, or dealers.

Previously, drug trafficking was 'type-started massive' in Indonesia. This condition is concerning. Drug damage is considered to be able to threaten all Indonesian people. Even the state can lose a lot because of drugs.

Narratives of drugs can threaten the life of the nation and state, not just empty messages. There are so many problems with drugs. Instead of just health problems (addictions, organ damage, mental disorders, overdose, and death), the state can also be harmed.

Drug trafficking has a major impact on the economy. The government is like a new task because it has to provide medical centers to rehabilitation. Like it or not, efforts to break the chain of drug trafficking are carried out.

The government does not want to miss hunting for manufacturers, dealers, and drug dealers. The mandate was given to the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) and other law enforcement officials. The results are significant.

Take for example in 2014. BNN managed to uncover as many as 102 narcotics case reports. The number of suspects is piled up, both men and women. Even the drugs confiscated reached fantastic value. Law enforcement should actually be appreciated.

However, on the other hand, the disclosure of drug cases has actually shown that drug trafficking is increasingly rampant. Indonesia is considered a'market' by international drug networks. This fact is evidenced by the presence of suspects who are not only Indonesian citizens (WNI), but also foreign nationals (WNA).

"Throughout 2014, BNN has succeeded in uncovering hundreds of drug crimes with a fantastic amount of confiscated evidence. This year the number of suspects who have been arrested is 196 people with a comparison of 158 men and 38 women".

It is known, of the number of people arrested, 174 people are Indonesian citizens and 22 foreigners. Two foreigners are Nigerian, six Chinese citizens, one Pakistani citizen, one Thai citizen, one Malaysian citizen, one British citizen, four Iranian citizens, two Kenyan citizens, one Canadian citizen, two Hong Kong citizens and one Liberian citizen," said Head of BNN, Anang Iskandar as quoted by the Sindo page, December 23, 2014.

Drug cases are increasingly gaining attention from various parties. All Indonesian people ask the government to take firm action for drug businesses. MUI also spoke up.

MUI directly supports the government's agenda if it wants to kill drug businessmen. Among others, producers, dealers, and dealers. This view was expressed directly by the General Chairperson of the MUI, Ma'ruf Amin at his Office at MUI on March 3, 2015.

Efforts to kill drug businessmen according to Islamic law. This narrative makes the government no longer need to worry about the rejection of the death penalty. This step is predicted to be able to create a deterrent effect. Even though not a few have criticized the option of the death penalty.

"Producing, circulating, abusing drugs without rights, the law is haram and a crime that must be punished by had/ta'zir (type of punishment for criminal acts handed over to the authorities) The state may impose a sentence of ta'zir up to the death penalty for producers, dealers, dealers and drug abuse".

"However, the punishment is in accordance with the level of drugs they have or these actions are repeated in order to emphasize the law. The president's decision is in accordance with the fatwa of the Ulama Council. The determination of the death penalty in certain types according to the court's decision is in accordance with the MUI decision. The arguments and basis are there. The government cannot give forgiveness. The danger is already great," said Ma ruf Amin (now: Vice President of Indonesia 2019-2024) as quoted by Detik.com, March 3, 2015.
