National Police Chief Gen. Tito Karnavian mentioned two organizations behind the riots that infiltrated the peaceful protest of students and Papuans. There are even groups of students who are driven by intruder organizations.
The two organizations referred to are the West Papua National Committee (KNPB) and the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP). The brain and provocateurs of the two organizations will be pursued wherever they are entrenched.
“I already know where to take it, including the Papuan student alliance group (AMP) which is also driven by the KNPB and UMLWP and will be pursued,” said Tito in Jayapura on Thursday (5/9).
Benny Wenda, The United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP), and the West Papua National Committee (KNPB), were called by the National Police Chief Tito Karnavian as the masterminds behind the riots in Papua and West Papua.
“I already got some data. KNPB is playing, ULMWPP is playing. And I know where it goes. Including the AMP movement, friends of the Papuan Student Alliance, they are also driven by them, “said Tito
Tito also mentioned that the riots had been set up in such a way. “So what is happening in Papua now and beyond is all designed by the groups here. And I will pursue it, “he said.
At present, the National Police has asked Interpol for assistance in pursuing suspects of a suspected hoax case at the Surabaya Papuan Student Dormitory, Veronika Koman.
Veronica, who is also KNPB’s attorney, also provoked a siege at AMP Surabaya to trigger rioting in Papua and West Papua.
Furthermore, Tito claimed to have deployed a team to investigate anarchist demo cases in Deiyai. The demonstration at Deiyai is no longer purely the aspirations of students who are demanding racism in Surabaya.
“It was true that initially the demonstration went peaceful but suddenly thousands of demonstrators appeared and some of them attacked the security forces,” said the former Papua Police Chief.
According to him, a team from the National Police Headquarters involved propam and Komnas HAM to investigate the action in Deiyai. He said the team was deployed to get reports and correct data about events that occurred.
“People are asked not to easily believe the information that is packaged to make Papua more chaotic and heat up others,” he said.
The demonstration that ended in riots in Deiyai caused one member of the Indonesian Army to die and six members of the Indonesian Army and Polri to be injured. The victim was shot down and mistreated by demonstrators who took 10 SS 1 firearms belonging to the Indonesian Army. Of the 10 senpi shoots taken by demonstrators, it was reported that nine shoots had been returned.
