The activities of the people of the city of Sentani, especially around Sentani Airport, Jayapura Regency were paralyzed due to clashes between residents and the police after Papua Governor Lukas Enembe was brought by KPK investigators.

Traffic flow and economic activity in the area were also paralyzed because the authorities forcibly dispersed residents who protested against the arrest of Governor Lukas Enembe. The KPK suspect was taken to Sentani Airport and then flown to Jakarta via Manado.

Until now, the security forces are still on guard around Sentani City and Sentani Airport.

One of the residents of Sentani City, Tina admitted that she was forced to secure herself in the house of one of the traditional Sentani leaders.

"On our way to the airport, we have seen a mass movement to Sentani Airport with sharp equipment, so we immediately secured ourselves at the house of the traditional Sentani leader," said Tina, Tuesday, January 10, as reported by Antara.

Meanwhile, another resident of Sentani City, Cony, also experienced feelings of fear for the incident, saying that he had to fight fear because he saw firsthand what happened in front of Sentani Airport.

"We hope that this situation will improve soon and will not have a wider impact on the community," he said.

Previously, the Papuan Police Chief Inspector General Pol. Mathius D. Fakhiri also confirmed the arrest of Lukas Enembe.

After being secured, Lukas Enembe was taken away by the Mobile Brigade of the Papua Police.

Previously, the KPK had named Lukas Enembe together with the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua (TBP) Rijatono Lakka (RL) as suspects in the alleged bribery and gratification case related to infrastructure development projects in Papua Province.

The suspect, Rijatono Lakka, is suspected of handing over money to Lukas Enembe in the amount of around Rp. 1 billion after being elected to move three infrastructure projects in the Papua Provincial Government, namely the "multiyears" project to improve the Entro-Hamadi road with a project value of Rp. 14.8 billion, the "multiyears" rehab facility and infrastructure supporting PAUD Integration with a project value of Rp. 13.3 billion, and the "multiyears" project to organize the AURI "outdoor" shooting venue with a project value of Rp. 12.9 billion.

For the needs of the investigation, the investigative team has detained the suspect RL for the first 20 days starting from January 5, 2023 to January 24, 2023 at the KPK Detention Center at the KPK's Red and White Building, Jakarta.
