JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria promised to foster DKI boxing athlete Jill Mandagie who was involved in a riot when competing at XX Papua PON 2021.

According to the Deputy Governor, it is possible that the Youth and Sports Service (Dispora) will conduct an evaluation if the boxing athlete is proven guilty.

"Yes, we are studying it, we will check it later. Of course this must be guided, educated," said Riza on the sidelines of the inauguration of the Jakarta literacy house in South Jakarta, reported by Antara, Saturday, October 9.

"And if it is proven guilty later there will be guidance and evaluation from Dispora," he added.

The Jakarta boxer Jill Mandagi is suspected of being the target of a number of angry people after protesting strongly against the jury's decision in the men's 52-56 kilogram class match which was held at Cendrawasih Gymnasium, Jayapura.

In that match, the jury decided victory for NTT athlete Luki Mira Agusto Hari.

Jill Mandagie also allegedly protested loudly. Then he got out of the ring and slammed the door and hit a billboard. The action also sparked a reaction from a number of people there.

This can be seen from the video circulating on social media, where a number of people suspected of the organizing committee had chased and tried to attack Jil Mandagi.
