Police call for no Falun Gong during Asia-Africa Conference

The West Java Police of Indonesian have urged the public to participate in securing a series of events during the 60th anniversary of the Asia-Africa Conference in Bandung and refrain from holding rallies, especially around the peak of the event on April 24, 2015.　 Provincial police chief Insp. Gen. M. Iriawan urged every police force chief in the region, especially guard against the Falun Dafa — also known as Falun Gong — community in Indonesia, a day prior to and a day after the event. “The police will not issue rally permits on those days. We appreciate the aspirations, but we will secure the situation,” Iriawan told police personnel during a roll call at Gasibu Square in Bandung on Tuesday. He added that the police would disperse rallies carried out from April 23 to 25, aggressively if necessary, should community groups remain steadfast in expressing their aspirations. Iriawan has also assigned officers from territories around Bandung to anticipate the possibility of rallies being held during the conference anniversary. “There are also security issues on terrorism and the Free Papua Movement,” said Iriawan.   　　 Original Text From:http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2015/04/15/police-call-no-rallies-during-asia-africa-conference.html
