JAKARTA - Minister of Law (Menkum) Supratman Andi Agtas asked former members of Jamaah Islamiyah (JI) to comply with applicable legal regulations after the declaration of the peak disbandment of the organization in Surakarta, Central Java, Saturday, December 21.

"According to the contents of their declaration, we hope that former members of Jamaah Islamiyah in the Surakarta and surrounding areas comply with the applicable legal rules in the Republic of Indonesia," Supratman said in a written statement, Monday, December 23, which was confiscated by Antara.

Supratman believes that the disbandment of the organization is a historic event. For this reason, he invited the former members of Jamaah Islamiyah to strengthen the ideology of Pancasila, create a harmonious life, and distance themselves from anarchist acts.

He said the declaration of the peak of the disbandment of Jamaah Islamiyah in Surakarta, which was read by the former members of Jamaah Islamiyah, marked their return to the fold of the Republic of Indonesia.

"Of course, the Indonesian government is waiting for their positive contribution in filling Indonesia's independence, not with various acts of anarchy or violence," he said.

The Jamaah Islamiyah is an Islamic militant organization in Southeast Asia that seeks to establish a giant Islamic state in the regions of Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines.

Previously, thousands of former members of Jamaah Islamiyah from Surakarta, Kedu, and Semarang residential areas declared their disbandment in Solo, Central Java, Saturday, December 21.

One of the declarations read out together was to support (sami'na wa atho'na) the disbandment of Al-Jamaaj Al-Islamiyah in Bogor, West Java, on June 30, 2024.

In addition, at the declaration, around 1,400 representatives of former members of Jamaah Islamiyah were ready to return to the fold of the Republic of Indonesia and were actively involved in filling in independence and keeping themselves away from extreme understandings and groups or tatharruf.

They also stated that they are ready to follow the applicable legal regulations in the Republic of Indonesia, and are committed and consistent in carrying out things that are logical consequences.

Apart from the Minister of Law and Human Rights, the event was also attended by the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, the Head of the National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) Komjen Pol. Eddy Hartono, Head of the Special Detachment (Densus) 88 Anti-Terror Police Inspector General Pol. Sentot Prasetyo, and Minister of Social Affairs Saifullah Yusuf.
