JAKARTA - National Police Chief, General Idham Azis, was angry with the actions of police officers who broke up the demonstration at the Southeast Sulawesi Regional Police Headquarters (Sultra) by using a helicopter. The National Police Chief expressed this anger in a joint working meeting with Commission III of the DPR.

"Now you can't play the masking, so you can just check the propam. If it's still allowed, I'll stick it up," said Idham as broadcast on Parliament TV, Wednesday, September 30.

The National Police Chief emphasized that the police who were the pilot of the helicopter maneuvering at the Southeast Sulawesi Regional Police Headquarters, Kendari, have now been questioned. Idham explained that the dispersal of the masses by helicopter was clearly not in the applicable standard operating procedures (SOP).

"The pilot has been checked with Propam. That's just making it up. There is no SOP in the air, the one in Kendari," he said.

It is known that the police used helicopters to disperse the masses during a demonstration to commemorate the death of two students at Halu Oleo University (UHO) Kendari, Randi and Muhammad Yusuf Kardawi, which was held at the Headquarters of the Southeast Sulawesi Regional Police Headquarters, Saturday, September 26.

The helicopter flew low from inside the Regional Police Headquarters and aimed at the demonstrators.

As a result of this incident, the demonstrators ran to avoid dust and trash. Not only that, the students also pelted the helicopter with drinking water bottles and stones.
