JAKARTA - A total of 6 minors are still being detained by the North Jakarta Metro Police, allegedly related to demonstrations in the North Jakarta area a few days ago.
"Currently there are only 6 people (who were detained by the police). They have not been returned to their parents, even though it has been more than 3x24 hours (detained)," said Commissioner of the Indonesian Child Protection Commission (KPAI), Diyah Puspitarini when confirmed by VOI, Thursday, September 4, 2025.
The detention has not been processed by law for more than 1x24 hours, so his party encourages law enforcement officials to immediately return them to their respective parents.

KPAI has advocated for a number of minors who have been detained by the North Jakarta Metro Police since Monday, September 1 until now. However, to this day, the six are still being held at the North Jakarta Police Headquarters.
"Children should not be detained for more than 1x24 hours," he said.
KPAI also regrets the steps taken by the police officers who unite the students with adult prisoners.
"They are still used as one with adults. And this violates the Child Protection Law, and it has been more than 3x24 hours (detained)," he said.
