INDUSTRY.co.id - Jakarta - The Independent Journalists Forum, AJI, LBH Press and FSPM requested the government to thoroughly investigate against the print media of Radar Bogor by elements of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP).

The Media Workers' Forum regrets that the police have not yet thoroughly investigated the first resettlement on Wednesday, so that similar action is repeated, "said FSPM Independent Chairman Sasmito Sabu (2/6/2018)

Upon the event the Media Workers Forum urged

1. PDIP leaders to call for cadres and sympathizers to stop doing destruction and cadres proven to violate the law (Barring the activities of journalism, destruction, persecution and destruction) given the toughest sanctions. The act of intimidation, staff beating and destruction of office equipment is a violation of law which can be categorized as criminal act which is very threatening democracy and press freedom in Indonesia.

2. Strongly criticize the statement of members of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia PDIP Bambang Wuryanto who stated "if in Central Java the office is already flat with the land".
