JAKARTA - Merto Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Fadil Imran is paying attention to the process of investigating the Muslim Khilafah group following the viral 'Awakening of the Caliphate' convoy on social media. In fact, a team was formed to investigate the group.

"What is clear is that according to the order of the Polda Metro, we have formed a team and have also been on the ground conducting an investigation," said Head of Public Relations of the Polda Metro Jaya Kombes E Zulpan to reporters, Thursday, June 2.

In the process of investigation, the team that has been formed will take firm action against anyone involved. Starting from the person in charge to the leader of the group.

The action was taken because the existence and activities of the Muslim Khilafah were deemed unlawful. Especially, related to the ideology of the group.

"Activities like this are against the legal provisions in our country and the Polda Metro Jaya will take firm action," said Zulpan.

Zulpan explained that the group's convoy violated the rules because there was an invitation to the community to join the Muslim Khilafah. Especially, there are sentences to arouse hatred for the legitimate government.

"They invited people related to the Khilafah to join. Then there were also words they made in the convoy which they put words that aroused hatred against the legitimate government," said Zulpan.

On the previous occasion, the National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) assessed that the caliphate ideology adopted by the Khilafatul Muslimin group was very dangerous. In fact, justifying infidels against a system that is not in accordance with his views.

"The ideological aspect is very dangerous by having the ideological ideals of a caliphate in Indonesia such as HTI, JI, JAD and other terrorism networks," said Director of Prevention BNPT Republic of Indonesia, Ahmad Nurwahid.

In addition, the ideology of the Khilafatul Muslimin group often justifies other views that do not suit them as infidels.

From the background of Abdul Qadir Hasan Bajara as the founder of the Khilafatul Muslimin group, said Nurwahid, he has close ties to other radical groups, such as NII, MMI and has a track record in terrorism cases.
