JAKARTA - Strict action against terrorist groups in the Papua region (Armed Criminal Groups) has always been linked when Densus 88 at the National Police Headquarters succeeded in securing terrorist suspects. As happened in Bekasi, West Java, in the last few days.

Many people think that Densus 88 only focuses on terrorism in other areas outside Papua. Meanwhile, the KKB who entered the terrorist group actually escaped the officers' action.

One who has been vocal in highlighting the problem is Hidayat Nur Wahid (HNW). The Deputy Chairperson of the MPR RI and PKS politician was surprised that Densus 88 Anti-terror was not present in handling and preventing terror acts carried out by the Papuan KKB.

In fact, this group has disturbed the state because it caused losses, both material and immaterial.

"In fact, they have challenged the state, lowered the red and white flag, they have killed TNI soldiers, Polri, killed health workers, burned markets, health centers, and schools. These are real terrorists in front of the eyes and threaten the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. make arrests,” Hidayat told reporters, Thursday, November 18.

Hidayat also reminded the statement of Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD that since last April, the Papuan KKB had been declared a terrorist group by the state. Hidayat is worried that Densus 88's responsiveness to the arrests of three ulama from the KKB in Papua could raise big questions in the community.

One of them is regarding the handling of Densus 88 Anti-terror, which always targets religious groups.

"This injustice raises a big question mark, why are Muslims then targeted," said the senior PKS politician.

Separately, social media activist Denny Siregar also questioned why the action of Densus 88 was always compared to the action against the Papuan KKB. So far, according to Denny, Densus and officers in Papua have been fighting all-out to eradicate this dangerous group.

"Every time they catch a terrorist, the pug always say, "Why doesn't Densus dare to arrest the Papuan KKB??" The Papuan KKB has been fought, arrested, but not finished. So are the terrorists, instead," Denny said via his Twitter account- @Dennysiregar7 quoted on Thursday, November 18th.

"If you play far away, don't just play in the bucket," said Denny.

Three people were arrested by Densus 88 in Bekasi, West Java. The three missionaries are Ustaz Farid Okbah (FAO), Ustaz Zain An-Najah (ZA), and Ustaz Anung Al-Hamat (AA). One of the suspects is a member of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI).

From the results of the Detachment's investigation, Farid Okbah and two other suspects were arrested for allegedly being involved with the Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) terrorist network.
