Raids Nightlife in Mesuji / Antara

JAKARTA - The Mesuji Police have held raids on a number of nightclubs in the area to improve security and public order ahead of Ramadan.

According to Kapolres Mesuji AKBP Alim, his party secured dozens of visitors and managers of night entertainment venues during the raid which was held on Tuesday, March 30 in the morning.

He said that his party will continue to increase raids at night in dimly lit stalls, nightclubs, cafes and karaoke, especially those that do not have a permit.

"Raids focus on overcoming the problem of alcoholism, prostitution, gambling, drugs and other things. The Task Force team always patrols every night to maintain order in the community," he said.

During the raid that was held Saturday night, the Task Force team secured dozens of visitors and song guides at several cafes and karaoke in the Mesuji area, and they were herded to the Mesuji Police Headquarters for examination.

The raids are also to ensure that nightlife venues are free from public disease.

He stated that there were many reports from the Mesuji community that they were disturbed by the existence of unlicensed nightclubs. The presence of night entertainment venues such as cafes and karaoke disturbs the sense of security and order in the community.

Meanwhile, Head of Intelligence and Security of the Mesuji Iptu Police, Puthu Harthan Jaya Utama, said that during the raid on Tuesday, March 30 in the morning, officers secured dozens of cafe and karaoke visitors.

He said that not only did the officers raid the visitors, the officers also searched the managers of cafes, karaoke, and nightclubs.

"We also checked the manager and female song guide for cafes and karaoke," he said.

In addition, officers confiscated two automatic motorbikes, bottles of liquor, wine in literal packages. The officers also checked visitors and managers of nightclubs, but they did not find drugs or drug positive ones.
