"We are allocating approximately 70 officers in each district," Asep said in a written statement on Thursday, March 27, 2025.
2. Police Deploy Water Cannons as TNI Law Repeal Protest Heats Up
Indonesian citizens staged a protest in front of the House of Representatives building on Jalan Gatot Subroto, Central Jakarta, demanding the repeal of the TNI Law. The demonstration intensified as protesters climbed the front fence of the parliamentary complex, prompting the police to deploy water cannons to disperse the crowd.
The water cannon fire briefly scattered the demonstrators, but some responded by setting off fireworks. Near the gate, protesters also set fire to tires as an act of defiance.
In addition to opposing the TNI Law, the demonstrators also called for the cancellation of the proposed revision of the Police Law. "The revision of the Police Law is unnecessary," declared one of the speakers addressing the crowd.
