JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya emphasized that it would disband the sahur on the road (SOTR) activity which is often carried out during the month of Ramadan. This dissolution was carried out because SOTR could create a crowd that could potentially cause COVID-19 transmission.
"What if we see a crowd of sahur on the road? We disperse, which we put forward in a persuasive and humane manner," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya, Kombes Yusri Yunus, to reporters, Wednesday, April 7.
Yusri said the joint TNI-Polri team, as well as the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government will take firm action for people who remain stubborn. The sanction for those who are stubborn will use the Canteen Law.
"If it is disbanded it is not possible to be warned, then the name will be legal action against the health protocol that we will carry out. Therefore, as a socialization to the public facing fasting, we reiterate that there is no sahur on the road," he said.
In an effort to prevent SOTR activities, his party will alert around 120 personnel from the traffic unit. Then, apply the road segment closure scheme.
"(The blocking) will start from 23.00 WIB to 05.00 WIB. Filtering SOTR from the Harmoni area to the Senayan Roundabout," he said.
