JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya has prepared a series of rules that will be applied to parties who still choose to come and be involved in the 212 reunion at the Arjuna Wiwaha Horse Statue, Central Jakarta. This action has not received permission from a number of parties, including the COVID-19 Task Force.

"We are using the Health Quarantine Law, namely Law Number 6 of 2018 which states that everyone is obliged to comply with the implementation of health quarantine," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes E. Zulpan to reporters, Wednesday, December 1.

Not only the Health Quarantine Act, said Zulpan, his party will also apply criminal rules or the Criminal Code. At least the articles that will be used are Articles 212 to 218 of the Criminal Code.

"Those who force themselves to carry out crowd activities even though they have not received a permit will be punished with the suspicion of Articles 212 to 218 of the Criminal Code," said Zulpan.

Therefore, Zulpan hopes that the organizers of the activity can comply with the applicable legal provisions. Moreover, it is concerned with public health because currently the COVID-19 pandemic is still going on.

"For the safety and security of all people from the COVID-19 pandemic, which is not expected to occur in a third wave," Zulpan said.

For information, the 212 reunion action committee has again changed the plan. The 212 reunion will take place in two locations, namely at the Horse Statue of Arjuna Wiwaha, Central Jakarta and the Az Zikra Mosque, Sentul, West Java.

"It's true, as has been said," said the 212 reunion committee, Eka Jaya, to VOI, Tuesday, November 30.

The 212 reunion which will take place at the Horse Statue will start at 08.00 WIB until 11.00 WIB. There, will be filled with orations.

Then, activities at the Az Zikra Mosque will start at 13.00 WIB. Later it will be filled with dhikr together. "It's just that not all of Sentul (the masses participate) because it's also limited there," he said.
