MALANG, KOMPAS.TV – Four members of the Malang City Police Unit were questioned and detained by Propam because they were suspected of having mistakenly raided an Army Colonel while pursuing a drug operation target.
The four have apologized, but they are still being held for questioning.
“So the incident is true and mediation has been carried out. We have submitted an apology and our apologies have been received,” said Head of Public Relations of the East Java Regional Police, Kombes Pol Gatot Repli Handoko, Friday (26/3/2021).
They initially wanted to catch a drug dealer who was informed that he was at the hotel. However, they were suspected of mistaking the target, and raided the hotel room being rented by Colonel I Wayan Sudarsana.
They are considered to have violated standard operating procedures (SOP).
“We are still taking action against the members involved because they clearly violate the SOP in carrying out police actions. So these members have now been handled, detained at the Malang City Police and handled by the Malang City Police Propam,” he said.
