Depok Ahmadiyya Community, a chapter of the Indonesia Ahmadiyya Community (JAI) will take legal action for the forced closure of Depok Al-Hidayah Mosque which took place on Saturday and Sunday, June 3-4, in the morning.
Secretary of External Relations of JAI, Kandali Achmad Lubis stated that his community will take the legal path against the forced closing of Ahmadiyya Mosque in Depok by Depok City Government.
"We are going to take legal action, it seems to be the forcible sealing for the seventh time," Kandali said.
He said community was deeply concerned about the incident in the midst of a consolidated effort to respect diversity on the anniversary of Pancasila, but on the other side there is still discrimination against the children of the nation in their own place of worship. "What is wrong with us? Don't we have the rright to build a mosque? Why is it sealed? Here, there is still discrimination against the nation's children," said Kandali, Sunday (06/04/2017).
Kandali said the sealing or forcible closure for the seventh time of Al Hidayah Mosque took place on Saturday at 10 am and ended Sunday at 02 am.
"Our behavior is not deviant, right? We never screamed kill people. Our motto is Love for All Hatred for None," said Kandali.
The party considered Depok Mayor through the Civil Service Police Unit of Depok City persecuting Ahmadiyya Muslims community by forcibly closing the mosque run by the Ahmadiyya community in Sawangan, Depok, and banning its own citizens, the Ahmadiyya Community of Depok to perform worship activities.
