JAKARTA - The atmosphere of emotion enveloped the Al Ikhlas Mosque on the 6th floor of the Central Jakarta Metro Police (Jakpus), last Wednesday, April 16.

The reason is that in that place, a marriage was carried out between the suspect in the theft case with violence with the initials AS and his idol with the initials EPB.

The marriage contract began at 08.00 WIB and took place in an orderly and smooth manner. The event was led by the official penghulu from the KUA, witnessed by the families of both parties.

Central Jakarta Metro Police Chief, Kombes Susatyo Purnomo Condro assessed that this activity is a form of implementation of the precision program initiated by the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, which focuses on law enforcement which is more humane and responsive to the needs of the community.

"We facilitate this marriage as part of respect for the personal rights of the inmates. Even though he is a suspect, he still has the right to legally live his personal life according to religious and state law," said Susatyo in his statement, Friday, April 18.

He also revealed that everyone has the right to undergo marriage, even though their status is a suspect. Because of the decline, the law is not only a matter of justice, but also a sense of humanity.

Police are not only law enforcers, but also public servants who uphold human values. Hopefully this marriage will be the beginning of change and a step towards a better life," said Susatyo.

Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Central Jakarta Metro Police, AKBP Muhammad Firdaus, ensures that the entire process takes place safely, in an orderly manner, and in accordance with applicable procedures.

In the process, this activity is still closely monitored by police personnel, and the families of both parties are also involved in this process.

After the consent, AS and EPBY officially became husband and wife, greeted with emotion by the witnesses and their families present.

"This activity is a manifestation of a restorative justice approach, which places human values in law enforcement," he concluded.
