@harisknpi or Haris Pertama's account is known as the General Chair of the KNPI DPP. According to Denny, Haris must understand the risks of reporting someone. If Haris' report to the Police is not legally proven, then Abu Janda has the right to report back as a form of defamation.

"If this happens, Haris could go to jail. Don't mess with reports", tweeted Denny.

According to Denny, this pattern is common in Indonesia. report something to the Police even though they do not have sufficient evidence. "Then the buzzer moves to raise the issue. If it is rejected because it is not feasible, they will raise the issue of "being protected by the regime", "the tools of the rulers" as if their report must be accepted. That is coercion", said Denny.
