Head of Public Relations of the Central Java Police (Central Java) Kombes Pol Iqbal Alqudusy reminded police officers not to upload photos with prospective candidates participating in the 2024 General Election on social media (medsos).
"All members of the National Police do not upload photos with political figures or prospective candidates on their social media," he said in a press release in Semarang, Thursday, May 4, which was confiscated by Antara.
According to him, this is part of the National Police's efforts to maintain neutrality ahead of the 2024 General Election.
He explained that Polri personnel were asked to use social media as a cooling system to maintain a conducive situation in Central Java.
He emphasized that the neutrality of the National Police is regulated in the laws and regulations of the National Police Chief.
He said members of the National Police were prohibited from becoming a winning team, prohibited from participating in black campaigns, were prohibited from recommending not to exercise their right to vote, and not to interfere in practical politics.
"The presence of the National Police in various 2024 Election activities is only limited to security," he said.
He added that Polri personnel who violate neutrality in the election will be subject to disciplinary sanctions and a professional code of ethics.
