PeKANBARU - Rohil Police Chief AKBP Andrian Pramudianto said his party had arrested 11 forest and land burners (karhutla) and some of them had undergone legal proceedings until the P21 stage.
"P21 stage in accordance with Law Number 8 of 1981 concerning the Criminal Procedure Law (KUHAP) that if it has finished conducting the investigation, investigators are obliged to immediately submit the case file to the public prosecutor," said the Police Chief as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, August 14.
The Prosecutor's Office will assess whether the file is complete or not. At this stage the term P21 will be found. P21 is a code used to state the status of the case file.
Through the P21 stage process, he said, it was proven that the Rokan Hilir (Rohil) Police would still take firm action against the perpetrators of the burning of Karhutla to provide a deterrent effect for the perpetrators.
"From the beginning of the year until now, there have been several Karhutla perpetrators who have been prosecuted," he said.
Rohil Police members routinely keep reminding the public not to clear land by burning. Clearing the land by burning is not easy but causes new problems that harm many parties.
Therefore, people are not allowed to clear land by burning. If someone is caught clearing the land by burning the land, strict action will be taken.
"The Rohil Police have made various efforts so that forest and land fires do not occur, such as providing counseling, spreading announcements, installing banners, patrols, standby apples and others," he said.
Meanwhile, the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), together with Manggala Agni, TNI, Polri including the Fire Care Community (MPA) at the location have extinguished forest and land fires in Penyaguan Village, Batang Gangsal District, Indragiri Hulu Regency (Inhu).
"Karhutla has been extinguished, now it's just a matter of cooling down," said Riau BPBD Head Edy Afrizal.

In addition, he said, two water bombing helicopters were also deployed to the location. Water to extinguish the fire is supplied from the canal around the hotspots.
Efforts to extinguish the forest and land fires were also carried out by modifying the weather or artificial rain from the Weather Modification Technology Team (TMC) of the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) using Cassa aircraft.
"We have mobilized all elements. Both from land and air, including efforts to modify the weather, and the police have also taken action against the perpetrators in accordance with applicable legal regulations," said Edy.
The blackout of forest and land fires in Inhu is quite difficult for officers in the field. The hotspots are also quite far from road access.
Currently, according to Edy, the location of the Karhutla is already in a cooling condition. The ground team is still staying at the location.
