MANOKWARI - Dozens of residents from the social organization (ormas) of the National Police-TNI partners in Manokwari, West Papua held a protest against the words of Kamaruddin Simanjuntak's lawyer who was considered to have tarnished the good name of the National Police institution. "We ask Kamaruddin Simanjuntak to immediately account for his statement on the Uya Kuya YouTube channel which states that the National Police institution serves the mafia," said Chairman of the 32 FKPPI West Papua Regional Management (PD) Samy Djunire Saiba in an action held on Jalan Trikora Wosi, Manokwari, Antara, Thursday, December 22. Samy Saiba stated that the statement by the late Joshua's lawyer, which went viral on Uya Kuya's Youtube channel, Friday, December 9, not only tarnished the good name of the Police but also hurt the family of the National Police in West Papua. "If you have evidence, please show it. That person is not an institution, when it comes to Sambo mafia, please, but don't associate it with the Polri institution,” he also said. The same thing was conveyed by the Chairman of the West Papua Putra-Putri Family Organization (KBPP) Agus Warbal who urged Kamaruddin Simanjuntak to immediately submit clarification and an apology to the National Police institution. "As a generation born and raised in a large family of police, we are also sick when our parents (Polri) are said to serve the mafia," said Agus. If this is not heeded, said Agus again, the National Police's extended family in West Papua Province will take the applicable legal route. "We don't mention ethnicity, race or religion, but what we urge to take responsibility for is the personal Kamaruddin Simanjuntak," he said again. Kamaruddin Simanjuntak previously mentioned that the average police in Indonesia served the mafia. He joked that many members of the National Police only served the country a week, while the rest served the mafia. "This is magical. So we cannot live hypocritically. That's why the average assets are tens of billions to hundreds of billions to trillions," Kamaruddin said on Uya Kuya's YouTube channel, Friday, December 9.
