JAKARTA - Hundreds of sympathizers of Rizieq Shihab (HRS) began to crowd Jalan Petamburan III, precisely in Gang Paksi, Tanah Abang District, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, July 20.

The arrival of these sympathizers is in order to welcome the former leader of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) who has completed his prison term and was declared free from the Bareskrim State Detention Center (Rutan) on Wednesday 20 July 2022.

Rizieq officially left the Police Criminal Investigation Unit at 06.45 WIB. From observations in the field, it was seen that sympathizers packed Gang Paksi where Habib Rizieq's residence was. In all white uniforms, the sympathizers guarded the entrance to the residence of former FPI officials.

In the alley, there was also a banner that read "No documenting in any form in this area except for the official LIP team is prohibited". In this location, many sympathizers violate the health protocol (Prokes) by not wearing masks.

Previously reported, the Head of the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kanwil Kemenkumham) DKI Jakarta Ibnu Chuldun, confirmed that information about the parole process (PB) for Moh Rizieq alias Habib Muhammad Rizieq Shihab bin Husein Shihab on Wednesday, July 20, morning.
