JAKARTA - The Cengkareng Police established four monitoring posts in Cengkareng District, West Jakarta during Ramadan to anticipate brawls and other crimes.
"The monitoring post is occupied by joint officers from elements of the TNI, police, and local government," said Cengkareng Police Chief, Police Commissioner Hasoloan Situmorang, when confirmed in Jakarta, Friday, March 24.
Hasoloan said the four monitoring posts were placed at points deemed prone to brawls.
Hasoloan explained that the monitoring post will be guarded for 24 hours. Officers will also conduct patrols in several areas.
According to Hasoloan, brawls usually occur in the early hours of the morning or when the time enters the sahur. With the existence of the post and 24-hour guard, he hopes that brawls in the area during Ramadan can be prevented.
Tambora sub-district members also made similar efforts, namely building eleven security posts spread across each village.
"We have built 11 special safety posts that are distributed at vulnerable points," said Tambora Sub-district Head Agus Sulaiman when contacted in Jakarta.
Agus said the post was needed because generally brawls often occur during Ramadan, especially during sahur.
The post is filled with officers from the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) from eleven urban villages in West Jakarta.
They guarded 24 hours. Not only Satpol PP, TNI and Police officers also participated in monitoring at the post.
