Police Predict Hoaks to Enliven the Virtual World

Ahead of the 2019 Presidential Election, it is estimated that there will be a lot of hoaks and circulating hate speech. It happens both in cyberspace and in the real world.


So that the community needs to be educated continuously, as a form of anticipation so as not to be easily provoked and incited by misleading news and information and the truth is not clear.

"If there are things that are not clear enough, you can ask competent sources," said the Head of the National Police Headquarters, Inspector General of Police Setyo Wasisto, on the sidelines of the Tasyakuran Commencement of Film Making event, at the Semarang Police Academy complex on Wednesday (12/9 )

Facing the 2019 Election, the National Police have taken anticipatory steps. Even the National Police have formed what is called the Nusantara Task Force whose tasks include anticipating the people to be cool, safe and peaceful.

Particularly entering the year of the democratic party the Presidential and vice presidential elections as well as the 2019 Legislative Election. Because the dissemination of hoaks and hate speech is predicted to increase.

The Chief of Police, Setyo is still clear, once inaugurated has issued a policy which one of them is 'managing' the media including social media (social media). So that three sub-units were formed in the National Police Headquarters.

The three include the Cyber ​​Bareskrim Directorate which previously was a Sub Directorate, then the Directorate of Intelligence is a Special Security Directorate. "While the public relations that I lead is a work unit called the Multimedia Bureau," he added.

Especially for the Multimedia Bureau, Setyo is still clear, in charge of monitoring social media. Then explore whether there is a positive, neutral or negative. Likewise for the negative whether it enters into the realm of the ITE Law or not.

Even if it has entered the realm of the ITE Law, the National Police is still carrying out a persuasive plan by telling the account owners that there is a violation and that they are told to delete it.

"But if it is still going on related to the content that is hoax, the expression of hatred and the nature of provocation is forced to take legal action." We are cooperating with the Directorate of Cyber ​​Barescrime and this legal action has been done many times, "he said.

He gave an example, the latest hoax spreader in Kalimantan, which was secured by the Criminal Investigation Police, which was the result of the Multi Media Bureau patrol and the Cyber ​​Bareskrim Directorate.

Setyo also added, to anticipate this effort the National Police also needed cooperation with the community. Because cyberspace is extraordinary. There are billions of accounts in the virtual world.

In addition, the National Police also collaborated with citizens, the Ministry of Communication and Information and related stakeholders in the cyber world. "So do not play games, for the perpetrators of the spread of hate speech, the sanctions can be up to six years in prison and a fine of up to Rp. 1 billion," he continued.
