statement regarding the communist revival was a trumped up.


REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Jakarta Metro Police Chief, Inspector General M 
Iriawan, turned down the statement of the Grand Imam of Islamic Defenders Front 
(FPI), Habib M Rizieq Shihab, who remind the police that there was an 
indication of the revival of Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). 

According to Iriawan, the information given by Habib Rizieq was a trumped up.  
"The domain is difficult to answer because the fact is, there is no (PKI). 
There is no PKI in the world," said Iriawan to reporters on Tuesday (January 
24).

Iriawan said it was impossible that the PKI could revive because the government 
had suppressed it more than 50 years ago. Therefore, he said, the society has 
nothing to worry about. "How can the Communist party revive, even if there is 
PKI, even only the embryo, it will be detected. It was a made-up (issue) as the 
money (case). The system has been existed for long time since 2001,” said the 
former provincial police chief of West Java.

Iriawan questioned why Rizieq just raised the PKI issue at this time. "So, why 
did he raise it now?" said Iriawan.

Related to the case where Rizieq made a statement about the new banknotes which 
bearing the ‘hammer and sickle’ (communist) symbol, Iriawan ensured that the 
banknotes did not contain the hammer and sickle symbol.  "It was already proven 
by the testimony of expert witness from Bank Indonesia ," he said.

As known, after joining the examination on the case of 'hammer and sickle' at 
the Jakarta Metro Police Headquarters on Monday (23/1), Rizieq asked the police 
and the public to be vigilant in the revival of PKI. He said there was an 
indication which has already existed, among them with a new currency containing 
the hammer and sickle symbol.
