JAKARTA - The TNI's move to unload posters and billboards for the leader of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) mass organization Rizieq Shihab in various places has been appreciated.

"IPW appreciates the TNI for taking down Rizieq posters in various places. In addition, IPW supports TNI maneuvers in civilian areas in Petamburan or around the FPI headquarters led by Rizieq," said Chairman of the Indonesian Police Watch (IPW) Presidium Neta S Pane in written statement in Jakarta, reported by Antara, Friday, November 20.

Neta assessed that the removal of the posters and billboards was indeed the land between Satpol PP and Polri. This is based on the provisions of regional regulations (perda) all the installation of banners, posters and billboards must have a permit.

However, because the billboards appeared again after they had been removed and the TNI took the initiative to participate in taking down the posters and billboards, IPW gave appreciation to the Pangdam Jaya for ordering its members to take down Rizieq's posters and billboards.

"Kodam Jaya ranks are expected to immediately clear all Rizieq posters and billboards without the permit," said Neta.- https://voi.id/aktual/20368/pangdam-jaya-per Orders-tni-copot-spanduk-rizieq-kalau- need-fpi-disband-just-https://voi.id/berita/20192/rizieq-dik Terbang-kurang-sehat-fpi-tidak-benar-beliau-lagi-[/see_also Further, Neta considered that Rizieq Shihab often make a statement that has the potential to disturb the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia. Even though the statement was only an empty threat, he reminded that FPI masses tended to be radical so that Rizieq's words had the potential to trigger security disturbances and disrupt the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia.

The remarks and threats, continued Neta, became increasingly boisterous when Rizieq's posters and billboards were seen in various places and without permission, giving the impression that Rizieq and his group had not been touched by the law.

"Ironically, in this situation the police are just silent. Rizieq's maneuvers that carried out the crowd in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic were ignored by the police. As a result, Rizieq was free to maneuver," said Neta.

Neta said that under such conditions, it became natural for the TNI to intervene to take over control of the situation by maneuvering around the Petamburan area and ordering its members to remove Rizieq's posters and billboards.

"All of this is done by the TNI for the sake of the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia from the threats and maneuvers of Rizieq and FPI. The TNI maneuvers around Petamburan and the removal of Rizieq's billboards at the same time show that the state cannot be defeated by those who maneuver to disrupt or destroy the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia," he said.
