The Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police has apparently examined a senior researcher from BRIN, Thomas Djamaluddin, as a witness in the case of threatening to justify Muhammadiyah's blood with the suspect Andi Pangerang Hasanuddin. The examination took place earlier this week.

"Then against TD (Thomas Djamaluddin), the owner of the FB account responded to by the suspect APH, has been investigated on May 8, 2023," said Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Public Relations Division Kombes Nurul Azizah to reporters, Wednesday, May 10.

The examination was due to the suspect Andi Pangerang Hasanuddin commenting on the social media account page of Thomas Djamaluddin.

However, there is no detail regarding the results of the examination of the senior BRIN researcher. It is only conveyed if Andi Pangerang Hasanuddin's comments are considered criminal elements of threats to SARA.

"The suspect APH responded to comments on TD's Facebook account that caused hatred or hostility to certain individuals and or groups of people based on SARA and/or threats of violence and/or intimidation aimed at personally through electronic media," said Nurul.

Meanwhile, Andi Pangerang Hasanuddin has been arrested and named a suspect in the aftermath of his comments that justify Muhammadiyah's blood. In that case, he faces up to 6 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 1 billion.

The threat of sanctions is because Andi Pangerang is suspected of under Article 45A paragraph 2 in conjunction with Article 28 paragraph 2 of the ITE Law.

Then, investigators also charged him with Article 45 B in conjunction with Article 29 of the ITE Law. Where, the penalty is imprisonment for a maximum of 4 years and a maximum fine of IDR 750 million.

Comments by Andi Pangerang Hasanuddin which are considered to contain SARA are;

"I need to make it lawful for all Muhammadiyah blood? Moreover, Muhammadiyah was infiltrated by Hizbut Tahrir through the agenda of the global Islamic calendar from the Liberation Gema? Lots of bacot really!! Here I kill you one by one. Please report my comments with the threat of murder articles! I'm ready to be imprisoned. I'm tired of seeing your commotion," he wrote on Facebook.
