JAKARTA - Member of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta Regional House of Representatives, Gilbert Simanjuntak, responded to the accusation of Deputy Chairperson of the PSI Council, Grace Natalie, that there was a connection between the case of Ade Armando's beating during the April 11 demonstration with volunteer Anies Baswedan.

Gilbert said that if Grace could accuse because she claimed to have evidence, it would be better if it was handed over to the police who are investigating the case of the beating.

"I think it's better if the evidence is given to the police and also opened to the public, so it's clear whether or not the volunteers were involved", Gilbert said in a short message.

What is clear, according to Gilbert, is that the persecution that Ade Armando suffered was an attack on Bhinneka Tunggal Ika or pluralism in Indonesia.

"There is no place for groups that attack Bhinneka Tunggal Ika in the Pancasila ideology", said Gilbert.

Previously, Grace Natalie accused Ade Armando of beating up volunteer Anies based on a screenshot of a WhatsApp group conversation with the name "Volunteer Anies Apik 4" circulating.

This screenshot of the contents of the WhatsApp group shows that one member of the group whose age is estimated to be over 40 years old, reports the presence of Ade Armando at the demonstration and he asks for help so that this information is forwarded to the masses of action with the aim that the masses crowd Ade Armando.

"If it is true that this man is an Anies volunteer, then this conversation shows that there is a relationship between Anies Apik 4 volunteers and stowaways during yesterday's demonstration", Grace said on CokroTV's Youtube show.

In fact, Grace claimed to have received information that some of the intruders were suspected to be members of the FPI and HTI. According to Grace, Ade has often criticized this group for alleged radicalism.

"This means that although the FPI and HTI mass organizations have been disbanded and declared banned, the actors are still actively engaged. Screen capture of the Anies Apik Volunteer WhatsApp group conversation yesterday could be a sign that FPI and HTI members and sympathizers are now merged into the Anies Volunteer", said Grace.

"Mr. Anies, you can dodge. But if it is true that Mr. Anies' volunteers and supporters intersect with extremist and radical groups, mediating these groups means the same as Mr. Anies giving space for radicalism and extremism to grow and develop in Indonesia", she continued.
