Moeldoko added that KKB is taking extreme measures at this time because they are afraid of the achievements of development in Papua.
Presidential Chief of Staff Moeldoko stated that the Armed Criminal Group (KKB) in Papua had committed 18 crimes since the beginning of 2022. The KKB's actions have resulted in 22 deaths.
"This group also killed employees of BUMN Istaka Karya in Nduga and beheaded civilians in Koroway," said Moeldoko at The Westin Hotel, South Jakarta, Thursday, July 21, 2022.
"KKB uses the guise of the struggle of the Papuan people, even though it is more to gain material benefits for the group," said Moeldoko.
Moeldoko added that KKB is taking extreme measures at this time because they are afraid of the achievements of development in Papua. Because if the development program is successful, the group is worried that their influence in society will be lost. Moeldoko said the government would take firm action against KKB through law enforcement.
He guarantees that firm action will only be directed at the KKB, not the general public. "This affirmation is important so that there is no wrong perception of the actions of the security forces that will be carried out," said Moeldoko.
