JAKARTA - Bareskrim Polri stated that they had questioned three members of Polda Metro Jaya who were reported in the unlawful killing case against the laskar of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI). The examination takes place before the status of the case goes up to investigation.

"It has been checked. It must have been checked. Last weeks it was checked," said Karo Penmas, Police Public Relations Division, Brigadier General Rusdi Hartono, to reporters, Friday, March 19.

However, Rusdi did not elaborate on the matter of the examination of the three reported parties. He only said that the case would be resolved quickly.

"From the beginning, when the investigation process was raised to the investigation process, investigators worked quickly to resolve the problem," he said.

The National Police confirmed that the case of unlawful killing in the handling of the attack by the 6 FPI troops had advanced to the investigation stage. There were three reported, namely members of Polda Metro Jaya.

"Our investigation has already been held first with the Prosecutor's Office because later prosecution will be carried out by them," said Head of Criminal Investigation of the National Police, Komjen Agus Andrianto.

Meanwhile, 3 members of Polda Metro Jaya were reported in the case of unlawful killing. This determination was based on the Police Report (LP) model A after receiving a recommendation from Komnas HAM. This report is the second in a series of cases of clashes between members of the police and the six militias of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI).

Where, the police were forced to shoot four members of the FPI laskar. But the shooting was allegedly considered an unlawful killing because the police did not make other efforts to avoid the loss of life.
