Ade Armando Beaten In Front Of The DPR Building, Battered Until He Took Off His Pants

JAKARTA - Social media activist Ade Armando had bad luck when he participated in monitoring the demonstration in front of the DPR Building. He was beaten to a pulp.

It is not clear what caused Ade Armando to be battered like this, Monday 11 April.

From the photo obtained by VOI, Ade Armando's face is battered. Blood dripped from his temple.

The sad thing is, the pants that are worn are no longer there. Allegedly forced to be removed by the perpetrators.

The police, who saw the beating process, immediately rescued Ade Armando. He was rescued by several police officers.

Ade Armando deliberately came to the front of the DPR building, which was the location for the BEM SI demonstration. To reporters, Ade Armando admitted that he did not join the students and only monitored the demonstration.

"I did not participate in the demonstration, but I am monitoring it and I want to state that I support it," said Ade Armando when met at the location, Monday, April 11.

Ade admitted that at a young age, he only wanted to support students who wanted to express their freedom of expression. Ade also hoped that this activity would not end in chaos because anarchist groups infiltrated it.

"I'm from the older generation, I want to see no matter how much I support the democratic movement. I hope this movement doesn't become chaotic and anarchic, and especially if the STM children join. But it seems like nothing has happened so far," he said.

On that occasion, Ade admitted that he supported the demands of the students in this action, one of which rejected the extension of the term of office of the President of the Republic of Indonesia and urged the Indonesian Parliament to prevent amendments to the 1945 Constitution.

"I also support this movement because I don't agree with extending the term of office of the president or the president for three terms," he said.
