        "summary": "Coordinating Minister for Political and Security Affairs Djamari Chaniago has warned that owners of social media accounts disseminating hoaxes about anarchic demonstrations will face criminal prosecution. The minister stated that videos circulating online, which call for unrest during the upcoming Independence Day celebrations, depict past events and do not reflect the current stable situation in Indonesia. He urged the public not to be provoked by unverified information and to trust the government to maintain security.",
        "content": "<p>Coordinating Minister for Political and Security Affairs (Menko\nPolkam) Djamari Chaniago has confirmed that owners of social media\naccounts spreading hoax information about anarchic demonstrations can be\nsubject to criminal sanctions. \u201cWe will find the accounts. If, for\nexample, there are indications that they meet the provisions for\ncriminal violations, we will take action and we will act decisively on\nthat,\u201d said Djamari during a press conference at the Kemenko Polkam\noffice in Central Jakarta on Wednesday. According to Djamari, these\naccounts frequently spread hoax information regarding calls for\ndemonstrations with anarchic overtones. He clarified that the\ndemonstrations shown in the videos are not current events. \u201cI declare\nthat video is not true. There are no such hoaxes in the territory of\nIndonesia, in our homeland. Perhaps it happened in the past. Going\nforward, there is none of that now,\u201d Djamari asserted. Djamari expressed\nregret that the narrative in the video appeared to provoke the public to\nhold demonstrations during the celebration of Indonesia\u2019s 81st\nIndependence Day in August. This narrative has the potential to create\nan unconducive situation, leading the public to believe that Indonesia\nis in a state of turmoil. He added that activities in shopping centres\nin several locations were observed to be normal, symbolising that the\nsituation remains well maintained. \u201cThe domestic situation is very, very\nstable and the developments occurring within the country are still under\nour control,\u201d he said. Djamari urged the public not to be easily\ninfluenced by such hoax information, to continue trusting the government\nwith security matters, and not to be provoked into spreading various\npieces of unverified information.<\/p>",
