Jayapura, Jubi TV– A total of three Company-level units or SSKs of the Maluku and North Sulawesi Brimob Units have been brought to Papua since 20 September 2022. The three Brimob SSKs were seconded in securing the City of Jayapura.

Head of Public Relations of the Papua Regional Police, Kombes Ahmad Mustofa Kamal said the addition of Brimob troops in Jayapura City was carried out to anticipate changes in the security situation after the appointment of the Governor of Papua, Lukas Enembe as a suspect in receiving gratuities worth Rp. 1 billion.

Nevertheless, Kamal emphasized that until now Jayapura City has remained conducive, even though Enembe’s supporters had rallied.

“We from the Police are always on standby to anticipate changes in the situation. However, we hope that we will maintain a safe and conducive situation. I’m sure the community will also be happy if the situation remains safe and conducive,” said Kamal in Jayapura City, Tuesday (27/9/2022).

Kamal stated that the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) would continue the law enforcement process in the case of alleged receipt of gratuities by the Governor of Papua. According to him, the Papuan Police are ready to help meet the needs of the KPK.

“We are always ready if the KPK asks for help. But we the police have the main task of protecting, nurturing, and serving the community,” he said.

Kamal stressed that the police will try their best to provide a sense of security and comfort to everyone. He stated that all people have the same right to feel safe and comfortable in the Land of Papua.

“We always coordinate and communicate with all elements of society, leaders, and the TNI,” he said. (*)
