URGENT ACTION

KAPOLRI, KAPOLDA METRO JAYA, dan KAPOLRES METRO JAKARTA PUSAT SEGERA BEBASKAN TANPA SYARAT PULUHAN MASSA AKSI DARI DANAU TOBA YANG SEDANG MENUNTUT PENUTUPAN PT. TOBA PULP LESTARI DI KEMENTERIAN LINGKUNGAN HIDUP DAN KEHUTANAN RI!

Jakarta (26/11) Aliansi Gerakan Rakyat Tutup Toba Pulp Lestari (TPL) yang menyampaikan aspirasi di kantor Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan (LHK) RI, pada sore hari ini pukul 17.40 WIB ditangkap oleh aparat kepolisian. Sebanyak 40 perwakilan masyarakat Danau Toba yang terdiri dari ibu-ibu dan lansia ditangkap secara sewenang-wenang oleh aparat kepolisian karena meminta bertemu namun tak ditanggapi oleh Menteri LHK Siti Nurbaya Bakar.

Pengerahan kekuatan yang berlebihan, tindakan kekerasan dan penangkapan sewenang-wenang terhadap massa aksi semakin menunjukkan watak represif negara yang seharusnya melindungi warga negara yang menyampaikan pendapat di ruang publik dan ingin bertemu wakilnya di pemerintahan.

Kami mengajak teman-teman semua untuk bersolidaritas kepada 40 orang massa aksi Aliansi Gerakan Rakyat Tutup TPL yang mengalami dugaan kekerasan dan ditangkap sewenang-wenang untuk mengirimkan pesan WhatsApp melalui link berikut:

Untuk segera membebaskan massa aksi Gerakan Rakyat Tutup TPL yang ditangkap secara sewenang-wenang dan tidak melakukan pelanggaran hukum dan HAM yang justru melecehkan kehormatan institusi Polri.

URGENT CALL

CALL ON CHIEF OF THE INDONESIAN NATIONAL POLICE, CHIEF OF METRO JAYA REGIONAL POLICE AND CHIEF OF CENTRAL JAKARTA METRO RESORT POLICE TO IMMEDIATELY RELEASE WITHOUT CONDITION THE MASS DEMONSTRATIONS FROM LAKE TOBA COMMUNITY WHO DEMAND THE CLOSING PT. TOBA PULP LESTARI AT THE MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND FORESTRY OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA!

Jakarta (26/11)--The Alliance of the People’s Movement Demanding the Closing of PT Toba Pulp Lestari (TPL) who expressed their aspirations at Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic Indonesia (KLHK) office, was arrested this afternoon at 17.40 WIB by the police. 40 people from the alliance who come directly from Lake Toba, North Sumatra to Jakarta, consisting of women and the elderly were arbitrarily arrested by the police for requesting a meeting with the minister, Siti Nurbaya Bakar. Instead of receiving a response from the minister, the people were arrested.

The excessive use of force, acts of violence and arbitrary arrests of the mass demonstrations by the state apparatus further demonstrate the repressive nature of the state which is supposed to protect its people who express opinions in public spaces and wish to meet their representatives in government.

We invite all of our friends to join in solidarity with the 40 community members of the Alliance for the People's Movement who experienced alleged violence and were arbitrarily arrested to send WhatsApp messages via the following links:

1. Chief of the Indonesian National Police, Listyo Sigit Prabowo, M, Si (08118836555) https://bit.ly/KapolriBebaskanMasyarakatToba
2. Chief of the Metro Jaya Police, Pol. Fadil Imran (+6281510666666) https://bit.ly/KapoldaMetroJayaBebaskanMasyarakatToba
3. Chief of Central Jakarta Metro Resort Police, Kombes Pol. Hengki Haryadi (+628127211996) https://bit.ly/KapolresMetroJakpusBebaskanMasyarakatToba

We call on the police to immediately release the people who are arbitrarily arrested and did not violate the law and human rights, which in fact insulted the honor of the police institution.
