JAKARTA - November 14, 2020. It should be a day that Najwa Shihab will remember fondly. The daughter of the leader of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Rizieq Shihab was officially edited by Irfan Al Idrus. Syarifah Najwa Shihab's wedding was held to coincide with the commemoration of the Prophet's birthday.

At that time, VOI journalists participated in monitoring the implementation of the Prophet's birthday and the marriage contract of Rizieq's son, Najwa Shihab, from Front TV's YouTube channel. At 20.40 WIB, the bride and groom and Rizieq Shihab still did not get on stage.

The discipline of implementing health protocols is invisible. There was no distance at all between the congregation that was present. Most of them also appeared to be not wearing masks, even though some were using them incorrectly.

Even though the Central Jakarta City Government has sent a letter to Rizieq Shihab. Central Jakarta Mayor Bayu Meghantara asked Rizieq to follow health protocols, including reducing the number of guests attending the event. The letter was dated Friday, November 13. The implementation of this health protocol is necessary because the transitional large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) are still in effect.

"In accordance with these conditions, you are asked to apply health protocols, both the committee and participants who attend the event with a maximum of 30 people in one room," the letter said as quoted by VOI, Saturday, November 14.

On the stage, a number of habibs were clearly jostled. They also do not wear masks like most congregations. An event guide from the stage reminded all present to wear masks.

"While welcoming the arrival of our teacher, we were reminded again to all the congregation to wear masks, to use health protocols," said the guide.

"Attention to the officers and the army, every person who does not wear a mask, please distribute the mask for free. We have provided tens of thousands of free masks for those who do not carry masks," he said.

A number of guests seemed to be crammed onto the main stage without wearing masks and jostling after Najwa Shihab's marriage ceremony in Petamburan, Central Jakarta. The marriage contract ceremony between Syarifah Najwa Shihab and Irfan Al Idrus was held at around 21.00 WIB and broadcast on the YouTube channel Front TV. In this event, Irfan said the contract in Arabic in front of Rizieq, while Najwa Shihab waited at his father's residence.

Health protocol violation

On the morning of November 15, Head of Satpol PP DKI Arifin came to Rizieq Shihab's house to impose sanctions for violating health protocols during the transitional PSBB period. Rizieq is considered to have allowed the violation of the health protocol in the form of a crowd. In fact, a number of guests who attended did not wear masks.

In the letter of imposing sanctions, Rizieq was proven to have violated DKI Governor Regulation Number 79 of 2020 concerning law enforcement as an effort to prevent COVID-19 and Pergub Number 80 of 2020 concerning the transitional PSBB.

The sanction given in the aftermath of the event was an administrative fine of IDR 50 million. Arifin said that his party had sent the fine letter to Rizieq.

Apart from Rizieq, 37 people who attended the event also received sanctions. According to DKI Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria said they were given sanctions for violating health protocols, especially not wearing masks.

Metro Jaya Regional Police Chief Inspector General Nana Sudjana is one of the people who was affected by Najwa Shihab's marriage. Without mercy, the National Police Chief immediately dismissed the Metro Jaya Police Chief, Inspector General Nana Sudjana. Inspector General Nana was transferred as staff to the National Police Chief.

DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan also removed the Mayor of Central Jakarta Bayu Megantara and Head of the Environment Agency Andono Warih from their respective posts. The head of the DKI Regional Civil Service Agency (BKD), Chaidir, said that this removal was because Bayu and Andono were proven to have violated the provisions for facilitating a crowd event held by Rizieq Shihab in Petamburan some time ago. The Ministry of Religion also removed Sukana from his position as Head of the Tanah Abang Religious Affairs Office (KUA).

Investigators at Polda Metro Jaya immediately opened an investigation into the alleged violation of the health protocol. Starting from the head of the organizing committee for the birthday of the Prophet and the marriage of the daughter of Muhammad Rizieq Shihab, Haris Ubaidillah to Governor Anies Baswedan, police asked questions.
