The Murder of Teuku Djohan
[edit]Head of the Cinta Meunasah II-2001 Information Task Force AKBP Sad Harun said that the member of the MPR RI/Chairman of the Aceh Golkar DPD died after performing the Maghrib prayer at the Baiturrahman Grand Mosque. Information gathered from the public stated that the deceased died on his way home after performing the Maghrib prayer from the Baiturrahman Grand Mosque. The shooting occurred about 50 meters before arriving at his house on Thursday, May 10, 2001.
Aceh Police Chief, Brigadier General (Pol) Chaerul Rasyid said, although the police do not yet know the identity of the perpetrator of the murder of Major General TNI (ret.) Teuku Djohan, his party already knows that the organization of the perpetrators of the shooting is from the Armed Separatist Movement.[2]
According to Chairul, the shooting of Teuku Djohan had been planned for a long time and carefully. This, he said, was more related to political issues, from Teuku Djohan's statements so far, which strongly rejected the Free Aceh Movement. "He is a true red and white, whose entire life is devoted to the Republic of Indonesia. He strongly opposes GAM, and he has been doing this for the past year," added Chairul. He denied that the shooting was purely criminally motivated. [3]
The Police Chief's accusation was immediately denied by the Free Aceh Movement. If the accusation is directed at GAM, according to the Spokesperson of the Joint Committee for Security Modality (LBMK) GAM, Tgk Sofyan Ibrahim Tiba, SH, the police have the wrong address. "GAM firmly rejects the accusation," said Sofyan when contacted by Tempo
He also regretted the accusation by the Aceh Police Chief, and asked the Police Chief to apply the principle of presumption of innocence, as one of the principles of Indonesian criminal law. As a party that did not do, did not commit the heinous act, continued Sofyan, the KBMK requested that the Aceh Police Chief as the person in charge of the formal position, so that the case is revealed transparently, so that it does not stop in the middle of the road. "Don't let it be like the murder cases of Tgk Al-Kamal, Safwan Idris, and others that have not been solved until now," he said.[4]
