The National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM) said that Gen. Moeldoko, the sole candidate for the post of the Indonesian Military (TNI) commander, was not involved in the forced conversion of Ahmadiyah followers in Cikeusik, West Java, in 2011.

Moeldoko, who will attend a fit-and-proper test with the House of Representatives Commission I overseeing defense on Wednesday, had been accused of assisting the West Java administration in carrying out Operasi Sajadah (Prayer Mat Operation) to return the Ahmadis -- who have been deemed heretical -- to the "right path" of Islam in March 2011.

"But we have no record of any evidence referring to such an allegation. We have also informed Commission I about this," Komnas HAM chairwoman Siti Noor Laila told The Jakarta Post on Tuesday. "However, we strongly encourage Commission I lawmakers to question his knowledge as well as commitment to human rights during the fit-and-proper test," she added.
