A total of 353 liquor (alcohol) of various brands was successfully confiscated by the Bogor City Government (Pemkot) from two nightclubs (THM) in the South Bogor and West Bogor areas, Monday, March 17.

This confiscation is a follow-up to Circular (SE) numbered 300/Kep.73-BAKESBANGPOL/2025 concerning the Implementation of Public Order and Public Peace for Disturbances during Ramadan 1446 H/2025 M in Bogor City.

The SE signed by the Mayor of Bogor, Dedie A. Rachim, emphasized the obligation of everyone or business entities that carry out business activities to maintain and maintain public order, peace, and create a conducive atmosphere for people who carry out fasting.

Set on February 28, 2025 in Bogor City, the SE emphasized that night entertainment business activities, karaoke or the like, and massage parlors or similar businesses are prohibited from operating during the holy month of Ramadan.

"I received a public complaint about a cafe with a music DJ that is still operating in Ramadan. Without further ado, I was accompanied by Satpol PP directly to the location. We will conduct inspections, and if violations are found, we will seal the place," said Deputy Mayor of Bogor, Jenal Mutaqin.

"We inspected two cafes and sealed them because they were found operating and found 353 bottles of illegal alcohol," he continued.

Jenal Mutaqin emphasized that this is a warning to other THMs who are desperate to operate in the fasting month, especially if they sell alcohol.

For information, the SE also emphasized that restaurants, food stalls, or similar businesses are allowed to operate during the day during the month of Ramadan, on condition that they close the dining area using a curtain.

In addition, there is a ban on producing, selling, and lighting firecrackers during Ramadan and on takbiran nights.

"Similarly, the prohibition of holding sahur on the road (SOTR) activities in the Bogor City area," said Dedie A. Rachim, Friday last week.

Ramadan bazaar activities in Bogor City are also required to maintain public order and public peace and coordinate with officials at the sub-district and sub-district levels.

Those who violate this provision will be subject to sanctions in accordance with Bogor City Regional Regulation Number 1 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Public Order and Public Peace and Community Protection.
