Chairman of the Nahdlatul Ulama Branch Board (PCNU) Lamongan, KH Biin Abdus Salam appreciated the firm measures taken by the National Police for ordering his police personnel in the regions to carry out large-scale operations and raids to stop the distribution of oplosan (bootleg liquor).
"I greatly appreciates the firm measures taken by police and all social elements in tackling the distribution of oplosan in the regions," He told NU Online here on Friday.
According to the man popularly known as Kiai Bi'in, consuming bootleg liquor is very dangerous for being able to lead to serious injures even deaths and not in line with the teaching of Islam.
Kiai Bi'in said that PCNU was committed to helping police in Lamongan through persuasive approaches in propagating the need of a healthy lifestyle by avoiding any dangerous homemade alcohol.
"I have call on NU board members, including NU young cadres to embrace a healthy lifestyle and stop drinking alcohol. Those alcoholics become emotionally attached to the substance and it is, again and again, very dangerous for their future," he said.
As reported by The Jakarta Post, National Police deputy chief Comr. Gen. Syafruddin ordered police personnel in the regions to carry out large-scale operations and raids to stop the distribution of oplosan.
“For any police chiefs who do not act seriously in implementing this order, we will find out who they are and replace them immediately,” said Syafruddin in Cicalengka, Bandung regency, on Thursday.
He said the police will be taking serious measures because the deaths of a number of people after drinking unsafe bootleg liquor had brought tremendous losses to society. Moreover, Muslims will soon observe Ramadhan.
Syafruddin asserted that the National Police would take tough measures against police officers who did not tackle the production and sale of bootleg liquor.
“We will take action against any police officer who keeps silent about oplosan vendors, let alone not investigating cases,” said Syafruddin.
As of the middle of April, 102 people in areas across Indonesia have died after consuming bootleg liquor. “The biggest number of victims were in West Java,” said Syafruddin.
In West Java, 61 people were reported to have died after consuming oplosan. Of the total, 34 died at Cicalengka Regional General Hospital, while six died at Majalaya Hospital and four others at AMC Cileunyi Hospital. Meanwhile, Bandung city reported seven deaths, with another seven in Sukabumi regency, two in Cianjur regency and another one in Ciamis regency.
The police have named four people, including the oplosan factory owner in Cicalengka, suspects in the case. (Masdar)
