BANDUNG - Deputy Governor of West Java Uu Ruzhanul Ulum regretted the action of a married couple, who are residents of Kolebers Village, Sukabumi City, which went viral in cyberspace because of the video stepping on the Qur'an.
Uu appealed to the entire community, especially residents of West Java, not to act with elements of humiliation and blasphemy for any reason.
"Currently there are others who insult the holy book. I hope that the public or anyone else, please stop Ihanah (insulting) against religious symbols, especially holy books that are valued by all religious people because they have no benefit. What for?" Uu said as reported by Antara, Friday, May 6.
Apart from being useless, he added, it has the potential to divide the unity and integrity of the Indonesian nation.
"Actions of insulting religion, apart from sins, can also be punished by the authorities; also the community will be punished socially and otherwise," he added.
He also asked the entire community to be proactive in dealing with such problems. According to him, there needs to be decisive action from local community leaders if it is found that residents have acted inappropriately.
"With a note that the actions taken by the community are not actions that violate the law. But they can be in the form of reprimands, advice, to take the person concerned to the authorities for legal processing," he said.
Based on information gathered from the police, the blasphemy case in the form of stepping on the Qur'an occurred in 2020 by a married couple with the initials DER (25) and SR (24). DER's action when he stepped on the Koran was carried out on SR's orders and recorded directly by SR.
The action of the husband and wife who married in a serial manner was then uploaded to social media accounts on Wednesday (4/5). DER and SR have been arrested by the Sukabumi City Police Satreskrim and named as suspects for alleged blasphemy against religion.
From the statements of the two suspects, the act of stepping on the Qur'an was not to insult the religion of Islam, which the husband and wife adhere to, but it was a form of the husband's oath not to irritate his wife again.
The action was deliberately recorded by the suspect SR to serve as a threat to the suspect DER not to irritate him anymore.
The climax, the two of them quarreled again while traveling to Palabuhanratu Beach and SR intentionally uploaded a video of DER stepping on the Qur'an to his Facebook social media account.
