JAKARTA - The National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) stated that there is a historical connection between the Al Zaytun Islamic Boarding School led by Panji Gumilang and the Islamic State of Indonesia (NII). However, for now, it is still being investigated whether there is an affiliation between the two.
"The problem is whether it still exists, of course, this is still in the process of studying and deepening BNPT together with other relevant stakeholders," said Director of Deradicalsization of BNPT, Ahmad Nurwakhid in his statement, Saturday, July 8.
NII or DI/TII is a group of terrorist radical networks through the uprising movement led by Marijan Kartosuwiryo.
However, after the reform with the repeal of the Anti-Subversion Law Number 11/PNPS/1963, the state practically does not have legal instruments to ensnare this movement and organization.
Although there is historical connection, the application of the Anti-Terror Law cannot be implemented. This is because Al Zaytun or NII Islamic Boarding Schools are not included in the List of Suspected Terrorism and Terrorism Organizations (DTTOT).
"The Law on the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism Number 5 of 2018 can only be applied to groups or radicalism networks that are included in the List of Suspected Terrorism and Terrorism Organizations (DTPOT) such as JI, JAD, JAT, and others," he said.
In addition, the reason why NII has not been listed in the DTTOT is because there has been no decision from the Court.
"Because of that, judging from historical aspects and ideologies and their existing movements to date, of course we encourage NII to be included in the DTTOT so that it can be charged with the Law on the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism", he added.

On the other hand, regarding the handling of the Al Zaytun case, continued Nurwakhid, it must be carried out holistically and collaboratively with a general and special criminal law approach according to sufficient evidence. BNPT plays a role in monitoring and monitoring with related institutions to deepen Al Zaytun's relationship with the NII network.
"However, another most important thing to consider is mitigation and guidance, especially for students, as well as creating conditions to ensure the stability of Kamtibmas," said Nurwakhid.
