Polda Metro Jaya emphasized that no members of the National Police were involved in the terrorism network as suppliers of firearms to DE terrorist suspects who were arrested in Bekasi some time ago. Originally, information circulated that three policemen, one of whom members of the Polda Metro Jaya, were suppliers of firearms and thousands of bullets. "This is circulating that several members of the National Police are involved in a terror network, we need to emphasize here that members of the National Police have nothing to do with the terror network. Some of these are mentioned, this is incorrect information," said Director of General Criminal Investigation of the Metro Jaya Police Kombes Hengki Haryadi to reporters, Friday, August 18. Referring to the data circulating, the three police officers were named Reynaldi Prakoso, Bripka Syarif, and Iptu Muhamad Yudi Saputra. Hengki emphasized that the three were indeed members of the police and were involved in cases of illegal firearms trafficking. However, not to DE terrorist suspects. "Member of the Metro Jaya Police, Reynaldy Prakoso, we arrested him together with Paminal because he received a weapon from one of the arms sellers illegally, and was secured by a parial," he said. Bripka Syarif is a member of the Cirebon Police Rendim. He was also not involved with DE terrorists but participated with Reynaldy Prakoso in the modification of airguns into firearms. Finally, Iptu Muhamad Yudi Saputra. He was also not involved with the DE terrorist suspect. This is because the supplier of senpi to KAI employees has been arrested and is a civilian. "The person concerned was involved in supplying long-barreled measok to the suspect. This is the wrong news, we have arrested the supplier, it's civilian, we don't need to say what his name is," said Hengki.

Previously, it was reported that three unscrupulous members of the National Police were arrested for allegedly suppliers of bullets and firearms (senpi) to KAI employees with the initials DE as well as terrorism suspects. One of them is a member of Polda Metro Jaya
