JAKARTA - The police stated that there were two reports received by Polda Metro Jaya regarding Bahar bin Smith alias Habib Bahar. Both reports are related to SARA.
Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes E. Zulpan stated that there were two reports with different reporting and dates.
"First (the reporting) on December 7, 2021 was reported by two people, Eggi Sudjana and Bahar Smith. Then December 17, which was reported by Bahar Smith," Zulpan told reporters, Monday, December 20.
However, when discussing in detail the context of the hate speech related to the Army Chief of Staff (KSAD) General Dudung Abdurachman, Zulpan stated that he could not convey it. The reason is that the research team is still investigating the connection.
"Investigators are investigating, it is clear that there are reports," said Zulpan.
"Reports exist, so reporters bring authentic evidence regarding the delivery of people they report on social media with sentences that cause hostility, hate speech, and SARA," he continued. Previously, the speaker, Bahar bin Smith, was reported to the Polda Metro Jaya. He is suspected of spreading information aimed at inciting hatred or hostility towards individuals and groups based on SARA or insulting state authorities.
In fact, not only Bahar bin Smith was reported in the reporting. Because Eggi Sujana was also reported on the same suspicion.
The report is registered with the number LP/B/6146/XII/2021/SPKT Polda Metro Jaya, dated December 7th.
While the second report is registered with the number LP/B/6354/XII/2021/SPKT/Polda Metro Jaya, dated 17 December. In this report, only Bahar bin Smith is reported.
