Papua again experienced violence that allegedly committed members of the police, Monday (01/05/2017). The victim was Yance Wenda. Jubi Newspaper Journalist and tabloidjubi.com. He suffered a number of injuries on his face because of being beaten by several police officers from Jayapura Resort Police.

He continued, when it was around 08:00 pm there was a mass arrest KNPB. They were taken to Jayapura Resort Police. Yance followed the crowd. But he did not go to the Polres.

"I was away from the masses and when the crowd was brought into the Resort Police, I sat in the front of the Police stall I did not take a picture I just watched.No long, a policeman came in. He opened my glasses He asked me I replied I am a journalist , "He said.

When he was about to pull a letter of assignment out of his bag, another police officer came to take Yance's bag. Some police officers then yanked Yance to the Police while kicking and beating him.

"Arriving at the Resort Police, I was examined, told not to dress, they asked me, I told them I was a journalist, they checked my bag and found my letter of assignment," he said.

"They then asked you reporters apparently, I told you I told you I was a journalist I would like to point a letter of assignment but you take my bag They look confused I was taken to Polres Jayapura approximately at 09:00 WIT and was only allowed home at 13 o'clock : 40 WIT, "he added.

Jayapura Police Chief, AKBP. Gustav Urbinas who contacted Jubi via telephone confirmed that Yance was being secured. But he said the concerned when it was secured because it came with other sympathizers of the mass who want to check their colleagues who first secured in the Police.

"He joined them, he did not use a press card, and after he got a new question he asked, after he got inside, he confessed to reporters and checked no id cards, only a scanned letter of assignment," said AKBP Gustav Urbinas.

According to him, after police learned Yance was a journalist, he was sent home. Jayapura Police Chief also denied if the person was subjected to violence from members of the police.

"No injuries, he's a group with them, and if he had a journalist's identification, he would know he did not use anything, he blended in. He did not show his identity as a journalist," he said.

Regarding this letter of assignment, the editor of Jubi Newspaper, Dominggus Mampioper said the media policy he leads is not to give ID Card to new journalists. To get an ID Card, a Jubi journalist must meet certain requirements, one of which must go through a period of work of more than 12 to 18 months. During this time, the journalist will get a letter of assignment extended every three months.

"Yance is assigned to cover the action, he's a new reporter, still getting editorial help, he's only given a letter of assignment, it's no different.As with other media, the assignment letter is given to a new journalist or when the correspondent loses his ID card. , Just a different shape, "said Dominggus.

Separately, Coordinator of the Advocacy Division of the Alliance of Independent Journalists of Jayapura City, Fabio Lopez Dacosta expects the police to re-examine the regulation on press freedom where there is no restriction on coverage of any issues in Papua.

"Should not use violence to restrict journalistic activities of a journalist if the journalist does not use a press card, then use a persuasive way to ask the journalist's identity," Fabio said.

According to him, the violence that befell Yance shows that there has not been a persuasive way to understand how the press works in the Papuan lands, especially on political issues and legal cases such as corruption.

"I hope Yance who gets a blow from some police officers can report it to Propam Polda Papua Field to be followed up," continued Fabio. (*)
