JAKARTA - Densus 88 Anti-terror Police confiscated 16 firearms (senpi) from the DE terrorist residence which is also an employee of KAI. Five of them are the result of modifications from airguns to senpi. "16 rifles, yes. 11 short, 5 long larons," said Karo Penmas of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan to reporters, Tuesday, August 15. One of the water guns modified by the suspect became a gun type. Then, there are also several rifles that fall into the manufacturer category or are not assembled. Adding, a spokesman for Densus 88 Anti-terror, Kombes Aswin Siregar, investigated the way the suspect DE modified the weapon. Including, the possibility of other parties who helped him. "We are still investigating. We are investigating the issue of weapons itself," said Aswin. Allegedly, DE has the ability to modify the airgun into that rifle when joining the West Indonesia Mujahidin terrorist group (MIB) in 2010. But, it is emphasized that the deepening process is still being carried out regarding the origin of the senpi found from the residence of the suspect DE. "So it is still necessary for us to explore and will update again, anything that has been experienced, anything that has been trained by the person concerned since that period until now," said Aswin. "If we calculate it means 13 years, yes, from the beginning he joined the MIB. The MIB is in the West, the MIT is in the East, they are then all residents of Anshor Daulah," he continued. Suspect DE was arrested in the Harapan Jaya area, Bekasi, Monday, August 14. From that arrest, Densus 88 Antiterror also confiscated dozens of short-barred and long-barred firearms.

Meanwhile, DE is also said to have plans to carry out amaliyah actions at Mako Brimob and the TNI headquarters. The plan was because DE was inspired by the 2018 Mako Brimob riots. At that time, terrorist convicts (prisoners) rioted at the Mobile Brigade Headquarters Kelapa Dua, Depok.
