Jakarta (B2B) - Kepala Kepolisian Republik Indonesia Komisaris Jenderal (Pol) Sutarman mengatakan motif teror penembakan polisi yang terjadi beberapa waktu lalu dipicu dendam terhadap penegak hukum.

"Motifnya ini dendam. Dalam aksinya, polisi dianggap penghalang. Bahkan dalam buku yang beredar dari kelompoknya dia, polisi dianggap thoghut," kata Sutarman di Mabes Polri, Jakarta, Kamis.

Ia mengatakan ada kekeliruan dalam aspek ideologi yang diyakini kelompok pelaku teror tersebut. "Jadi, mereka menganggap menyerang polisi itu halal, ini harus ada yang menegaskan kalau kita itu menegakkan hukum."

Sementara itu, Polri telah menangkap delapan tersangka teror penembakan terhadap polisi. "Kita sudah tangkap delapan. Kemarin enam dan sampai pagi tadi ada dua lagi."

Sutarman mengatakan kedelapan tersangka tersebut bukan otak pelaku penembakan, tetapi hanya pihak yang turut serta membantu membiayai aksi teror, mencarikan senjata hingga menyediakan kendaraan.

Jakarta (B2B) - The new National Police Chief (Polri), Commissioner General Sutarman, believes revenge is the motive behind the recent spate of attacks on police officers.

"The motive is revenge. They think the police are obstacles. Even in their manual, they call the police `thoghut` (demons)," Sutarman said in his office at the National Police Headquarters, Jakarta, Kamis (31/10).

So, there is something wrong with their ideology, he added. "They think attacking police officers is `halal` (legitimate). So, someone must tell them that we work to enforce the law," he explained.

"Because we are considered an obstruction to their activities, we have come under fire," he stated.

He said the police had arrested six suspects in connection with the attacks on police so far. "We have netted eight suspects. Six were caught yesterday, and two others were apprehended this morning."

He pointed out that the all suspects in custody were not the executors of the attacks but had helped finance them by providing firearms and vehicles, among other things.
