JAKARTA - A number of masses crowded Jalan KS Tubun and Jalan Petamburan III, Central Jakarta, to await the arrival of the leader of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Muhammad Rizieq Shihab to return to his residence.

Although Rizieq was scheduled to arrive at Soekarno Hatta Airport at around 09.00 WIB, the masses had packed Rizieq's house since 08.00 WIB, Tuesday, November 10.

Jalan KS Tubun is no longer accessible by vehicles. This is because many residents parked their vehicles along the road and approached Jalan Petamburan III until it was crowded.

A number of traders also took advantage of the crowd to sell their wares. The chanting of salawat continued to be sung around Rizieq's neighborhood.

Along Jalan KS Tubun also scattered various banners welcoming Rizieq. "Let's revolutionize the morals of the Petamburan people," said one of the banners near Rizieq's residence.

The weather in Rizieq's house is quite hot. The sun's heat was already felt and the wind was not blowing too much, so that droplets of sweat could not be avoided.

Approaching Jalan Petamburan III, tight security appears to be in place at the location. The Islamic Defenders Army was seen lining up a barricade. People cannot enter the street carelessly.

Meanwhile, Rizieq Shihab has arrived in Indonesia after more than 3 years in Saudi Arabia. Rizieq Shihab was greeted by a crowd of pick-ups who filled the Terminal 3 area of Soekarno-Hatta Airport.

Judging from the live streaming of Front TV's YouTube account, Rizieq Shihab returned to Indonesia with his family. Meanwhile, the pick-up crowd filled all sides of the arrival terminal area from the international route.

There were also lines forming a fence to make way for Rizieq Shihab from terminal 3 of Soekarno-Hatta Airport.

The crowd to pick up Rizieq Shihab had been moving since early this morning. It was reported that there was a total traffic jam towards Soekarno-Hatta Airport this morning. Prospective passengers even reportedly had to walk about 1 kilometer because the vehicle could not move.
