LEMTARI Babel Urges Full Probe Into Alleged Bullying of Bharada Hafizh
LEMTARI Bangka Belitung urges a full, transparent probe into the alleged bullying of Bharada Hafizh, without favoritism.
PANGKALPINANG, JOURNALARTA.COM — LEMTARI Babel Urges Full Probe Into Alleged Bullying of Bharada Hafizh after the Bangka Belitung chapter of the Indonesian Traditional Community High Institution issued a public stance on Tuesday, June 23, 2026. The group said the allegations involving Bharada Muhammad Hafizh Pratama should be handled openly, fairly, and without interference.
The statement comes as the case continues to attract attention from community groups and the public. For LEMTARI, the issue is no longer just about one officer’s complaint. It has become a test of whether law enforcement institutions can investigate internal abuse claims with real transparency.
LEMTARI Babel urges a transparent investigation
Dato Sardi Alpalangasi, head of the Bangka Belitung provincial DPW of LEMTARI, said the reported bullying allegedly involved senior personnel in the environment where Hafizh serves. He called the matter serious and said it could not be treated lightly if the allegations are proven true.
“If these allegations are proven true, then such actions constitute a violation of humanitarian values, ethics, and the principles of justice that should serve as the main foundation of every institution, especially institutions tasked with maintaining order and upholding the law,” Dato Sardi said in his official statement.
His words were firm. LEMTARI said bullying has no place in any institution. The group stressed that every person deserves humane, fair, and dignified treatment, regardless of rank or seniority.
The organization also voiced moral support for Bharada Hafizh and his family, who are seeking justice through legal channels. Dato Sardi said that effort is not a privilege, but a constitutional right that the state must respect and protect.
Why the case matters beyond one complaint
The group’s intervention matters because abuse allegations inside disciplined institutions often raise a wider question: whether junior personnel can report mistreatment without fear. If there is pressure, intimidation, or informal protection for the accused, the search for the truth can become harder and public trust can erode fast.
That is the point LEMTARI is pressing. Dato Sardi said there must be no intimidation or pressure that could block fact-finding. He also warned that the case should not turn into a contest of influence.
“No party should be protected if proven guilty. On the other hand, no one should be harmed without clear evidence. Everything should be opened plainly so the public knows the real facts,” he said.
For readers, the broader impact is clear. Cases like this shape how people view accountability inside state institutions. When a complaint is handled openly, it can strengthen confidence. When it is handled quietly, speculation fills the gap.
Public trust depends on how the probe is handled
Dato Sardi said transparency is the key to preserving trust in law enforcement. If the matter is not examined properly, he warned, public suspicion will only widen and confidence in the process could weaken.
He added that justice cannot depend on position, power, or influence. The standard must stay the same for everyone. Facts first. Evidence first. Then the law.
“LEMTARI Bangka Belitung hopes the truth will be revealed as clearly as possible. Justice must be upheld to protect the dignity of the law and public trust. Truth may be delayed, but it will never disappear. Justice must stand on facts, not power,” he said.
The statement adds to growing calls from various parties for the case to be handled fairly and without favoritism. For now, the pressure is on the investigators to show that the process will be open, disciplined, and able to withstand public scrutiny. (KBO Babel)
