Indonesian Police Vow Strict Action Against Demo Hoax Spreaders

The Indonesian National Police (Polri) have announced that they will take firm action against the spread of disinformation (hoaxes) related to demonstrations. This policy aims to protect society from malicious information that causes unnecessary confusion and anxiety among the public, and to maintain public order and stability. The National Police are concerned that the spread of disinformation could lead to social division and hinder the right to legitimate protest activities. Therefore, they plan to identify sources of information and conduct strict crackdowns based on relevant laws and regulations. (Source: Sindonews)
