The South Daha region, South Kalimantan, has been tinged because there was an attack at the police station. Five terrorists attacked South Daha Mapolsek and killed a policeman. The community condemned their actions to attack the police station so that some lost their lives.
South Daha is an area in the Upper South River, South Kalimantan. On the island of Borneo, there are also terrorists who threaten the peace and security of the people. They have the heart to attack South Daha Police Station and cause an officer to die while on guard. Suddenly all levels of society condemned this terrorist act that dared to attack the police station causing casualties.
This attack occurred on June 1, 2020. The terrorists consisting of 5 people deliberately chose to attack at dawn, because the situation was still quiet. It is also estimated that there are only a few guard officers. The beginning of this attack was when they set fire to a patrol car in front of South Daha Police Station.
Not yet satisfied with burning the car, they attacked inside Mapolsek. Brigadier Leonardo who was guarding inside was a victim, his body hit by a sword of a katana and was not saved. When his colleague came, his body was covered in blood and unfortunately he died in a noble duty.
Other officers also called to ask for help to counter terrorists. Eventually the terrorist ran away and some even hid inside Mapolsek. When there were warning shots, they didn’t even want to turn themselves in. The shootout was inevitable. A terrorist became a victim in that incident.
Society strongly condemns the terrorist act. Why should the police station be attacked? While they are community guards and protectors. Terrorists really have no heart and instead consider the police as their obstacle to independence. Officers are considered as representatives of the government, and radicals are openly hating the current government and want to change the principle of Pancasila.
Many people also regret why there must be an act of terror inside the police station? The terrorists are also not afraid of the risk of being shot and they may even be happy when killed in the event of an attack. Because they are considered shahid, even though the definition of shaheed is not like that.
The terrorist carried out the attack and stirred up the public, even though we are still in Shawwal. Isn’t it still in the Eid al-Fitr atmosphere and should forgive each other? But there were even riots that made a commotion. The terrorists did not care about the month that was used as the time of the attack, because their hatred of the government and officers was blind.
Intelligence analyst Ridlwan Habib explained that the terrorists who attacked South Daha Police Station, South Kalimantan, were trained people. They were not children yesterday afternoon, because they already knew the strategy of the attack. The terrorists deliberately chose to attack early in the morning because the composition was still silent. After all, usually the officer on duty can lack concentration due to drowsiness after overnight literacy. Moreover, when it’s early in the morning it’s still dark, so it’s easy to escape.
Allegedly, the terrorist is a network of ISIS. They consider the police is a representation of evil toghut, so it must be eradicated. Unfortunately the terrorist uses his strategy and intelligence to kill others. It could be that they have been brainwashed so that they hate the government and consider the police to be criminals.
The South Daha Mapolsek attack caused the death of an officer. A terrorist was also killed when he was attacked. This terrorist act was strongly condemned by the community, because the radicals dared to attack the police station and have the heart to kill innocent officers.
