The chronology of the riots in Dago, Bandung City, West Java has drawn the spotlight. The riots led to the arrest of residents in the riots that took place on Jalan Ir H Juanda on Monday, August 14. In fact, it circulated on social media the repressive actions of the police against residents who carried out demonstrations.
The chronology of the riots in Dago began because of a land dispute between residents and the heirs of the Muller family and PT Dago Inti Graha. Because of the dispute, several residents then took the initiative to report the matter to the Bandung Police Headquarters. Residents suspect that there are allegations of fraud and falsification of data.
The arrival of residents to the Bandung Police Headquarters occurred on Monday, August 14, 2023 at 10.20 WIB. The residents who came were on behalf of the residents of Dagos Elos and hundreds of other residents held a demonstration at the Bandung Police Headquarters on Jalan Merdeka Bandung.
However, residents were only invited to enter the office at 11.45 WIB with 4 people as representatives. Until 19.30 WIB, the police were accused of only conducting an interview report, not an examination report (BAP).
Disappointment grew even more when the residents' reports turned out to be rejected on the grounds that there was insufficient evidence. Even the police also asked one of the reporters to show a disputed land ownership certificate.
Residents who have been waiting for a long time then asked the police to submit their own rejection of the report directly by meeting the residents. However, the request was not made.
Because none of the police came to meet residents regarding reports that were rejected, angry residents then held a blockade on Jalan Ir H Juanda, Dago, Bandung City, at 20.30 WIB. During the blockade, residents also burned wood and tires, and unfurled banners voicing land disputes.
The blockade has an impact on traffic jams. Officers then closed the road from before the Dago gas station. In addition, vehicles planning to pass towards Dago Atas are asked to make a U-turn.
In this incident, negotiations were carried out and succeeded. However, suddenly three gunshots were heard. It led to panic and led to clashes. Angry residents then threw stones at the officers.
Because of the throwing of stones by residents, the police then made barricades and tightened security. Even water canon vehicles were deployed.
At 22:45 WIB, the police continued to try to disperse the crowd. Water canons also continue to spray water to disperse the crowd. Residents who took part in the action then moved to the surrounding residential area.
The dissolution of the masses was not easily carried out. The police several times got stone throws from residents. The resistance continued until 23.06 WIB. Due to the resistance, the police then dispatched the Raimas Team on motorbikes. The crowd could only withdraw at around 23.59 WIB, they ran around the terminal.
During the riots, the police managed to arrest several residents who were considered anarchist. Conditions began to really be conducive on Tuesday, August 15 in the morning.
