JAKARTA - The video congratulations on the birthday for PT TIKI Jalur Eka Nugraha (JNE) from Ustaz Haikal Hassan has a long tail. Even Haikal Hassan is mentioned as a shareholder in the freight forwarder.

VP of Marketing of PT Tiki Jalur Nugraha Ekakurir (JNE) Eri Palgunadi ensures that Haikal Hassan is not a shareholder in JNE. In fact, Haikal has never had any relationship with JNE.

"So there has never been a connection with Haikal Hassan in shares," he said at a press conference at Jetski Kafe, Pantai Mutiara, Pluit, North Jakarta, Wednesday, December 16.

Eri explained that JNE was founded by the late Suprapto Suparno and is currently led by Muhammad Feriadi as President Director, and Chandra Fireta and Edi Santoso as directors.

On the same occasion, President Director Feriadi said that currently JNE shares are pocketed by six people. Where one of the shareholders represents the Suprapto Suparno family.

"The shares are also held by Johari Zein, currently the company's commissioner and Chandra Fireta, the company's director. Then there are three other shareholders, namely Marselinus Kuncoro Adi, Hui Mariawati and Mirta Akbari," he said.

Meanwhile, JNE Hotman Paris' attorney confirmed that Haikal Hassan did not own shares and was not active as a manager in the company.

"So in conclusion, Haikal Hassan does not have a single share, is not active as a manager, not even active in any business activities of JNE," he said.

This case began with the appearance of the boycott hashtag JNE which became a trending topic on Twitter last week. Netizens are busy calling for a movement to stop using JNE services. The call started with the posting of a video greeting for JNE's 30th birthday from the Secretary General of the HRS Center, Ustaz Haikal Hassan Baras.

As a result, the video had a long tail, leading to allegations that JNE was affiliated with certain social organizations (ormas), in this case the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI).
