Aparat kepolisian berjaga-jaga disekitar maka Theys Eluay (suarapapua.com)
Jayapura, (1/1)—Tiga orang ditangkap saat demo memperingati 1 Desember berlangsung. Salah satunya, Victor Yeimo, Ketua Umum Komite Nasional Papua Barat (KNPB).
Polisi terpaksa membubarkan aksi demo sekitar puluhan massa KNPB yang hendak menuju lokasi Ekspo Waena untuk melanjutkan perjalanan mereka ke makam Theys Eluay di Sentani. Selain pembubaran, polisi juga menangkap tiga orang pemimpin massa, yakni Victor Yeimo, Alius Asso dan Usman Yogobi.
Kapolresta Jayapura Kota, AKBP Alfred kepada tabloidjubi.com (1/1) mengatakan pihak kepolisian tidak mengijinkan kegiatan tersebut. Karena massa memaksakan diri untuk tetap berjalan menuju Waena, maka pihaknya terpaksa memblokir perjalanan massa di sekitar PLTD Waena, karena negosiasi antara massa dan pihaknya gagal. Polisi juga menembakkan gas air mata untuk menghentikan massa yang memaksa terus melanjutkan perjalanan mereka.
Alfred membenarkan adanya tiga orang yang ditahan dalam aksi demo tersebut, namun tak merinci siapa saja yang ditangkap oleh Polisi. Informasi yang dikumpulkan tabloidjubi.com, ketiga aktivis KNPB yang ditangkap itu adalah Victor Yeimo, Ketua Komite Nasional Papua Barat, Usman Yogobi dan Alius Asso. Victor Yeimo ditangkap di sekitar PLTD Waena, sedangkan Alius Asso dan Usman Yogobi ditangkap di sekitar Lingkaran Abepura, saat memimpin massa lainnya yang hendak menuju Ekspo. Selain ketiganya, dikabarkan dua orang lagi, yakni Humum Kiman (20) dan Ebel Sala (19), keduanya mahasiswa Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Hukim Umel Mandiri, juga ikut ditangkap.
Wim R. Medlama, jubir KNPB mengatakan, unjuk rasa tersebut yang mereka lakukan sebenarnya dalam rangka Hari AIDS sedunia, peringatan jelang Natal bagi umat Kristen, dan perayaan 1 Desember sebagai hari pembebasan dan kemerdekaan bangsa Papua. Namun polisi malah membubarkan massa dan menangkap tiga rekan mereka. Ia menolak jika aksi demo mereka itu dikatakan sebagai aksi anarkis.
Kabid Humas Polda Papua, AKBP I Gede Sumerta Jaya juga membenarkan penangkapan aktivis KNPB tersebut. Namun menurut I Gede, polisi cuma memangmankan, bukan menangkap.
“Kita melihat bahwa ada gerakan massa yang membuat masyarakat resah. Itulah mengapa kita amankan, bukan kita tangkap, kita hanya amankan,” kata I Gede.
