Collaborating with the community," said Pondok Aren Police Chief, Kompol Bambang Askar Sodiq when met at Pondok Aren Police, Tuesday, March 18.

The police summoned the parents of the perpetrators, religious leaders to the school to come to the Pondok Aren Police with the aim of making conformity with social sanctions against the perpetrators.

Karena tidak ditemukan senjata tajam. Tapi murni hanya menggunakan sarong untuk melakukan kegiatan tersebut. (Oleh sebab itu) kita hadirkan guru sekolah hingga orang tua untuk memberikan edukasi," ucapnya.

Each party agreed that the arrested perpetrators would be given sanctions for cleaning the mosque in the East Mangu Jurang.

According to Bambang, this decision is a step taken to provide education and benefit local residents.

"The best place for them is a house of worship. At that time we coordinated with the village head. To ask which mosque to carry out cleaning activities. I consider the punishment reasonable, because they should be in a place of worship and they must clean it first," he said.
