Police Headquarters

JAKARTA - Bareskrim Polri stated that it would follow up on recommendations from the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) regarding the shooting of 6 Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) troops on the Jakarta-Cikampek KM 50 toll road.

This step is in line with the statement made by Komjen Listyo Sigit Prabowo, the National Police chief approved by the DPR, who said he was following up on Komnas HAM's recommendations during the fit and proper test.

"Recommendations will definitely be followed up," said the Director of General Crimes at Bareskrim Polri, Brigadier General Andi Rian, Thursday, January 21.

But Andi said that the National Police had not yet received the recommendation from Komnas HAM. Thus, investigators are currently still focused on handling cases of assault by members of the National Police by 6 FPI troops.

"Investigators have not received (recommendation from Komnas HAM)," he said.

Previously it was reported, Komjen Listyo Sigit Prabowo confirmed that he would follow up on the recommendations of the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) regarding the shooting that killed six members of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) army.

This was conveyed by Listyo in front of Commission III of the DPR when he was carrying out a fit and proper test.

"The extrajudicial killing incident recommended by Komnas HAM was in compliance with and following up on recommendations," said Komjen Listyo Sigit, Wednesday, January 20.

"So the KM 50 issue we follow the recommendations of Komnas HAM," he added.

Meanwhile, Komnas HAM Chairman Ahmad Taufan Damanik said that his party had indeed found human rights violations because there were unlawful killings committed by the police. However, there are no indications that point to gross human rights violations.

"We convey that as there are many outside indications that this is said or assumed to be a serious human rights violation, we have found no indication in that direction," said Taufan.

According to him, in order to determine if there was a gross human rights violation in an incident, several indicators must be met. "For example, there is an operation design, there is a structured order, commando, and others, including repetition indicators," he said.
