Yogyakarta’s new police chief is vowing to help the
Indonesian Military (TNI) complete its investigation of the Special
Forces (Kopassus) commandos who allegedly raided Cebongan prison and
killed four detainees.
“I am obliged to use all of ability of the
Yogyakarta Police has to solve the case. If needed, I will ask the
National Police [Polri] for back up,” Yogyakarta Police chief Brig. Gen.
Haka Astana said after his inauguration at National Police headquarters
in South Jakarta.
He replaces Brig. Gen. Sabar Rahardjo, who
will take Haka’s job leading the Strategic Studies Bureau at the
National Police’s Human Resources Division.
Haka, who was born and
raised in Yogyakarta, said that he would use a ‘cultural’ approach to
deal with the street thugs, such as the slain detainees allegedly behind
the murder of a Kopassus commando that led to the prison raid.
“I
will use no other way but the cultural approach mandated by the
sultan,” Haka said, referring to Yogyakarta Governor Sultan
Hamengkubuwono X. (ebf) (Yuliasri Perdani, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | National | Mon, April 08 2013, 3:27 PM)
