JAKARTA - Abu Bakar Ba'asyir is scheduled to be released from Gunung Sindur Prison, this week, Friday, January 8. Abu Bakar Ba'asyir is free after serving a 15-year sentence with a 55-month remission cut.
Head of the West Java Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kanwil Kemenkumham) Imam Suyudi said that his party would coordinate with the Densus 88 team regarding the release of Abu Bakar Ba'asyir.
"Of course, it remains and is currently coordinated with the Special Detachment 88 Police regarding the release of (Ba'asyir) on Friday," said Imam in Bandung, quoted by Antara, West Java, Monday, December 4.
After being released, according to him, Ba'asyir will be monitored by a number of parties for his safety and order. As is well known, Ba'asyir is a convict in a criminal case of terrorism.
"Because in the context of liberating terror convicts (terrorist convicts), further surveillance efforts are still being made by related parties," he said.
Imam said that so far Ba'asyir has indeed served a period of detention after deducting a 55-month remission from the 15-year sentence handed down to the founder of the Al Mumin Islamic Boarding School in 2011.
Imam asked all parties and students from the Ba'asyir Islamic boarding school not to pick up when the person concerned was free. The reason is, he said, during this pandemic, health protocols need to be upheld to avoid the spread of COVID-19.
He said that picking up would create a crowd which could be detrimental.
"Just wait at each house because he will be handed over to the family in coordination with Densus 88," said Imam.
