JAKARTA - The Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs (Menko Polhukam) Mahfud MD has received the results of the investigation by the Intan Jaya Joint Fact-Finding Team (TGPF). From the results of the investigation from October 2 to October 17, it was concluded that the shooting incident that killed a priest, Yeremia Zanambani in Hitadipa District, Intan Jaya Regency, Papua, allegedly involved apparatus.

"Regarding the killing of Pastor Yeremia Zanambani on September 19, 2020, the information and facts obtained by the team in the field indicate the alleged involvement of elements of the apparatus," Mahfud said during a press conference at the Kemenkopolhukam Office, Wednesday, October 21.

However, regarding the shooting, said Mahfud, this was allegedly carried out by a third party. After the government received the results from TGPF Intan Jaya, Mahfud said, this case would be resolved in accordance with the applicable legal regulations.

"Both criminal law and state administrative law as far as criminal acts in the form of violence and / or murder are concerned. The government asks the National Police and the Attorney to settle in accordance with applicable law indiscriminately," said the former Chairman of the Constitutional Court (MK).

Apart from the shooting case that killed Pastor Yeremia, TGPF also reported the results of the investigation into three other cases of violence. Based on the findings of the investigation team led by Kompolnas Daily Chairperson Benny Mamoto, the Armed Criminal Group (KKB) is the party responsible for the deaths of two TNI members Serka Sahlan and Pratu Dwi Akbar Utomo and a civilian named Badawi.

"After our team all gathered and each reported who was being interviewed, there were already 40 witnesses. Added by Mr. Sugeng (Deputy Head of the TGPF Investigation Team, Sugeng Purnomo, red), who was an individual of two people," said Head of the TGPF Investigation Team Intan Jaya. , Benny Mamoto at a press conference broadcast online, Saturday, October 17th.

This investigation team was split into two. The Benny Mamoto team came directly to Intan Jaya, while the team led by Sugeng moved to Jayapura City.

"So in terms of numbers, with a short period of time, we feel we are maximal. Significant information will be conveyed by the Coordinating Minister (Menko Polhukam Mahfud MD, red)," he added.

It is known that Pastor Yeremia's death last September with a gunshot wound to his body caused a polemic due to disagreements between the Armed Criminal Group (KKB) and the TNI. KKB accused the TNI of making Yeremia die with a gunshot wound to her body, while the TNI actually called KKB responsible for the incident.
