Jakarta – The National Authorities headquarters verified that no examination will be performed on Ismail Ahmad over his post on his Facebook page of ex-president Abdurrahman “Gus Dur” Wahid’s popular take on the Indonesian police.
” No investigation and legal case will be pushed against Ismail Ahmad,” National Authorities spokesman Inspector General Raden Prabowo Argo Yuwono stated here on Friday while speaking in connection with the fate of Ismail Ahmad, a citizen of Sula Islands District in North Maluku Province.
The Sula Islands Cops summoned Ahmad after publishing Gus Dur’s statement on his Facebook page on June 12, 2020, that said “there are just 3 honest polices in Indonesia: authorities statue, ‘sleeping authorities’ (Indonesian term for speed bump), and General Hoegeng.”
Yuwono noted that the North Maluku cops head office had actually rebuked policemans in Sula Islands District in connection with the Ismail Ahmad case.
The North Maluku police head office had also prompted those from the police’s unique criminal examination system to additional inspect the material of social networks platforms distributed among neighborhood members, he mentioned.
Ahmad was summoned to the Sula Islands cops precinct for his clarification on his post since the regional cops investigators presumed a most likely problem in between him and the authorities institution, he exposed.
The Ismail Ahmad case has actually drawn public attention. Alissa Wahid, Gus Dur’s daughter, for instance, was vociferous in her criticism of the cops, saying that Indonesia was reeling from a crisis in terms of having a funny bone, according to local media reports.
