JAKARTA - The laser shooting of various critical writings by Greenpeace Indonesia at the Red and White Building of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) led to a report to the police. This report was carried out by the general bureau of the anti-corruption commission to the South Jakarta Police.
"KPK through the general bureau has coordinated and reported to the South Jakarta Police," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Ali Fikri told reporters quoted on Tuesday, July 20.
The laser shooting was reported on suspicion of holding demonstrations outside the permitted hours, which was around 19.05 WIB. In addition, this action has the potential to disrupt the order and convenience of the KPK's office operations as a vital national object.
"We consider that there is a potential for intentional disturbance of order and convenience in the operation of the KPK office as a vital national object carried out by the intended external party," said Ali.
Furthermore, he said that when the laser shooting took place, the KPK and its security forces had banned Greenpeace. However, these non-governmental organizations (NGOs) actually ignored the prohibition that was conveyed.
"Considering that the activities are carried out outside the specified time and without permission from the competent authorities. However, these parties continue to do so by moving locations," he said.
So, the KPK decided to report the incident and hand it over to the police.
"Currently we leave it entirely to the South Jakarta Police to follow up. We hope that all parties will always be orderly and maintain the comfort of the environment," said Ali.
As previously reported, the KPK building, located on Jalan Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, was fired upon by lasers on Monday night, June 28.
The laser shot contained an inscription in the form of criticism of the KPK by the civil society group #CleanIndonesia from Greenpeace Indonesia.
At that time, the KPK was appreciative by saying that every part of society had an important role to play in supporting the eradication of corruption.
