JAKARTA - The Mayor of Central Jakarta Bayu Megantara and the Head of the DKI Jakarta Environment Agency (LH) were removed from their positions because they were proven to have facilitated the crowd at the Prophet's birthday event held by FPI leader Muhammad Rizieq Shihab.

Even so, DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan defended both of them and appointed them to become members of the DKI Jakarta Governor's Team for the Acceleration of Development (TGUPP).

"After being removed, the two of them were immediately transferred as members of the Governor's Team for the Acceleration of Development until further assignments were made," said Chaidir, Head of the DKI Civil Service Agency, in his statement, Saturday, November 28.

Initially, said Chaidir, the DKI Inspectorate examined Bayu and Andono based on Anies' instructions. During the inspection, the DKI Inspectorate did not only examine Bayu and Andono.

The inspectorate also examined the Head of Tanah Abang Sub-district Muhammad Yassin, Head of Petamburan Village Setiyanto, Head of the Sanitation Management Division of the Environment and Forestry Service, Edy Mulyanto, Head of the LH Office, Central Jakarta Marsigit, and Head of the Cleanliness Control Section of the LH Service Aldi Jansen.

"This removal is based on the results of the DKI Jakarta Inspectorate audit which assessed that the two of them had been negligent and neglected by not obeying the direction and instructions from the Governor," said Chaidir.

In the results of this examination, Anies actually gave directions to anticipate activities that could potentially create crowds at the Prophet's birthday and the wedding in Petamburan on 14 November.

Andono said, all stated that they understood the governor's direction, but it was found that in the field the directive was not implemented properly.

"One of the 5 points of direction is related to the prohibition of lending provincial government facilities or facilitating citizen activities which are mass gathering," he said.

During the crowd activity in Petamburan on November 14, the ranks of the sub-districts, sub-districts and the Environment Agency were found to have lent the provincial government facilities for mass gathering activities.

Chaidir explained, From the results of the examination it was found that there had been negligence in carrying out orders.

"The problem is not just a matter of borrowing, but about five clear and firm written directions from superiors that have not been implemented properly. They acknowledge and are subject to sanctions in accordance with existing provisions," he said.
