PAPUA - The armed criminal group (KKB) again shot and burned at a mining site in Baya Biru District, Intan Jaya Regency, Papua, Sunday, March 20 at around 05:35 WIT.
Intan Jaya Police Chief AKBP Abdus Syukur acknowledged that KKB had attacked several mining sites in the Baya Biru District.
"Indeed, there were reports of security disturbances carried out by KKB, but there were no casualties. From the reports received, it was revealed that 15 houses or panning camps were burned, scattered in locations 81 and 45," he explained as quoted by Antara.
In addition to shelters for burnt miners, there are also puskesmas and teacher housing estates. Abdus added that his party had not been able to send personnel to the location because there were no direct flights to Baya Biru from Enarotali, the capital of Paniai Regency.
"Members of the Paniai Police Station will be shifted to Nabire by road and if there is a flight to Baya Biru, it will be flown. It is possible that new personnel will be flown Monday, March 21 to Baya Biru," he explained.
At Pospol 99 Ndeotadi Baya Biru there are nine members of the Paniai Police. One of the personnel is still in Nabire. Baya Biru District is one of the gold mining areas in Paniai Regency.
