BOGOR - Bogor Police Chief AKBP Harun said that the Bogor Regency COVID-19 Task Force, West Java, is preparing sanctions for the organizers of the 'Puncak Berzikr X' which was held on Sunday, January 2.

"Yes (the fine), we are still working with the Head of the COVID-19 Task Force yesterday's evaluation issue," he said after the inauguration of the Satlantas building in the Mapolres area, Cibinong, Bogor, Antara, Tuesday, January 4.

According to Harun, the activity in the parking area of the Atta'Awun Mosque, Cisarua, Bogor took place without a permit from the Task Force. The security team at the location also managed to shorten the time for the event.

"In the past (the program) could be until the morning until dawn, but Alhamdulillah, it was finished at 10 pm," said Harun.

Previously, the Bogor Regency COVID-19 Task Force, West Java, rejected a permit application from the 'Puncak Berzikr X' committee which will take place at the Atta' Taawun Mosque.

"The rejection is a joint effort in the context of preventing and controlling COVID-19 in Bogor Regency," said the Head of the Bogor Regency COVID-19 Task Force Daily, Burhanudin in his reply to the implementing committee signed on Friday, December 31, 2021.

Burhan suggested to the implementing committee to postpone the activities that have the potential to cause crowds after the implementation of the Instruction of the Minister of Home Affairs (Inmendagri) number 66 of 2021 regarding the prevention and control of COVID-19 at Christmas and New Year ends.

According to him, the Minister of Home Affairs, which has also been forwarded through the Regent's Circular, stipulates that during the period from December 24, 2021 to January 2, 2022, the community is obliged to reduce activities outside the home, except for implementing 5M behavior.
