JAKARTA - The police have rebuked a teenager who caused a riot in the Horse Statue area, Jakarta. The police ordered the crowd to withdraw.
"Resign ... step back," said Central Jakarta Police Chief Kombes Heru Novianto stepping forward to face the masses, Tuesday, October 13.
The police chief advanced to the barbed wire barricade. Using loudspeakers, the Kapolres firmly asked the masses to disperse.
"Disband yourself. Disband yourself," said the Police Chief.
At around 4:00 p.m., this teenage mass appeared after the 1310 action broke up. They provoked the police by throwing stones, bottles and shards of glass.
The police briefly retreated, but the police barricade advanced toward the barbed wire.
Now the police are beating the masses back. The police moved towards the crowd ordering them to disperse.
Prior to this incident, there were 1310 demonstrations that gathered at the Arjuna Wiwaha Horse Statue Area, Central Jakarta, to voice the rejection of the Omnibus Law on the Job Creation Act this afternoon. The mass organizations in this alliance are the 212 Alumni Brotherhood (PA), the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) and the Ulama Fatwa Guard National Movement (GNPF).
Ustaz Sugi Nur Raharja alias Gus Nur delivered a speech on the command car. In his oration, Gus Nur thought that the government seemed to be desperately defending the Job Creation Law to be passed and enforced.
"There is bad news. The bad news is that this regime is ready to die for the sake of the omnibus law. However, this regime forgets that we are ready to die for the people," said Sigit to cheers from the protesters at the location, Tuesday, October 13.
This action took place orderly and peacefully. However, after the masses gradually left, another group emerged.
16.25 WIB - After being beaten back, the area that the police combed was clean.
