JAKARTA - Chairman of Commission XIII of the Indonesian House of Representatives Willy Aditya said that there is overcapacity at the Class I Salemba Detention Center, Central Jakarta. This was stated after conducting a silent inspection (sidak).

"If it is overcapacity, it is certain, this is 100 percent overcapacity," said Willy Aditya to reporters at the Salemba Detention Center, Central Jakarta, Thursday, November 14.

Willy said that the number of prison security officers is also far from the number of prisoners and detainees in the Salemba Detention Center.

"Even the ratio of security officers to those guarded is 1 to 190 (officers)," he said.

Willy emphasized that the number of prisoners in the Salemba Detention Center has reached 3,000.

"If the capacity is only 1,500, but this is almost 3,000 (prisoners), so it is truly overcapacity," he said.
