JAKARTA - Photos circulating on social media show thousands of civil servants and elements of the leadership of the Institute for Domestic Administration (IPDN) gathering in the building without wearing masks and maintaining physical distance. In fact, countries all over the world, including Indonesia, are undergoing the pre-crisis period of COVID-19.
Later, the crowd was discovered to be a lunch activity after the Eid al-Fitr 1441 Hijriah Praja prayer at the IPDN Jatinangor Campus, on Sunday 24 May. The crowd photo then received negative comments for not implementing health protocols.
Al Azhar University Criminal Law expert Suparji Ahmad said, if he refers to the Chief of Police's Declaration number Mak / 2 / III / 2020, then, the IPDN can be charged with the law. Moreover, when the activity took place there was resistance from the IPDN when it was dismissed by the police.
"If the imprisonment is 4 months, it can be charged under Article 216 or 218 of the Criminal Code in accordance with the announcement made by the National Police Chief," Suparji told VOI, Wednesday, May 27.
However, the application of new sanctions can be carried out if all the criminal elements in the regulation have been fulfilled. For that, there must be an in-depth investigation to confirm it.
However, said Suparji, the IPDN could not use the excuse of being a big family for justification. Because, even that has no effect on the prevailing regulations. Moreover, they are not the ones who live in the same house as the real family.
"The reason for being a big family is certainly not used as justification to violate social and physical distancing," said Suparji.
