Ahmadiyah followers in Makassar returned to their daily activities on Sunday after police had evacuated them by force due to threats from the Islamic Defender Front (FPI).

“Prayer and religious discussion are our obligation. We can’t stop these activities just because of a threat,” South Sulawesi Ahmadiyah leader Jamaluddin said, adding that Ahmadiyah would take a legal action against FPI following its threat.

Ahmadiyah would also report the intimidation to the National Commission for Human Rights (Komnas-HAM) and the Legal Aid Institute (LBH).

Jamaluddin said the FPI not only threatened Ahmadiyah followers, but also destroyed some of their facilities.
