JAKARTA - Banners reading "Beware!!! The Rise of the New Style PKI" were scattered in the Tanah Abang area, Central Jakarta, Sunday, April 3 yesterday.

The banner, which contained a picture of the Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces, General Andika Pratama, had caused a stir among local residents and passing motorists.

Based on the information gathered, the banners were found installed at two points in the Gelora Village area, Tanah Abang.

The location of the first point was found in the Gelora Village area, precisely in front of the Gelora Village Office, Tanah Abang District, Central Jakarta.

While the second point was found at the Ladogi Flyover, Gatot Subroto Street, Gelora Village, Tanah Abang.

According to the information compiled, the two banners calling for hate speech against the TNI Commander General Andika in Tanah Abang were immediately taken down by officers. Furthermore, the banner was secured to the Tanah Abang Koramil.

It was later discovered that the banner was allegedly related to the policy controversy of the TNI Commander regarding PKI descendants who were allowed to become TNI soldiers which were currently being discussed in a number of media.

While related to this news, no related parties have been confirmed.

Kasatpol PP Tanah Abang Sub-district Budi Salamun said his party would immediately check. However, he also directed the Head of the Gelora Village.

"I don't know yet, I'll confirm first. I'll check, try asking the Lurah (Gelora)," he said briefly when VOI confirmed, Sunday, April 3, evening.
