Entrained By Narcotics Cases, 10 Prison Prisoners In Riau Fired

RIAU - Head of the Riau Regional Office of Law and Human Rights, M Jahari Sitepu, said that until now his party had fired 10 prison and detention center employees in Riau who were involved in drug crimes."Don't try it. If any of our (officers) children play drugs, report them to me, I will take action right away. I will not tolerate it," he said during a separate event welcoming the head of the Pekanbaru Detention Center, on Jalan Sialangbungkuk, quoted from Antara, Tuesday, January 10.He is very serious because this is in accordance with the mandate of the Minister of Law and Human Rights, Yasonna H Laoly, so that LP employees or detention centers do not approach drugs.In addition, he also admitted that he was very embarrassed if there was news of drug trafficking controlled from prisons and detention centers. "I love you, I will remove him," said Sitepu.Previously, he said the dismissal policy was part of coaching and disciplinary punishment. Strict efforts by the correctional ranks in fighting drugs even got resistance from those who were still playing with drugs.Last year there was a Molotov throwing action at the official residence of the head of the Correctional Division and the official car of the Pekanbaru Prison Head of Security some time ago. The perpetrator is indicated to be a drug offender who has been arrested before."However, we are not afraid at all, with good intentions, God willing, we will always be protected by Allah SWT in carrying out our work," he said.Previously, the Riau Kemenkumham Regional Office had also transferred 47 high-risk inmates who were still trying to control drugs from behind bars, some were transferred to Nusa Kambangan Island.
