JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya is investigating the alleged intentional element behind the new standard operating procedure or SOP which has an impact that suspect AK can be included in the negative content blocking team at the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Kemenkomdigi).

It is known, AK was declared not to have passed the admission test. However, with the new SOP the suspect could join.

"It turns out that AK is still working on the website blocking team in Komdigi. After further investigation by investigators, it turns out that there is a new SOP," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Ary Syam Indradi to reporters quoted Thursday, November 7.

The SOP authorized AK and his team to become a working group for the blocking of the website.

Therefore, investigators will explore whether there is an element of intent behind the emergence of the SOP. This is because the existence of the regulation coincides with the implementation of the blocking team test.

"Regarding the findings, further investigation is being carried out, to answer whether there are intentional factors through the new SOP. So that AK and other perpetrators can work in the blocking team to commit crimes," said Ade.

Dozens of people named as suspects, consisting of 12 Komdigi employees and four civilians.
