        "summary": "Kodam IX\/Udayana has rejected viral claims that Indonesian Army personnel intimidated residents and forcibly demolished school facilities during the construction of a Kopdes Merah Putih cooperative in Ende, East Nusa Tenggara. The military command stated that the incident stemmed from technical adjustments needed for heavy machinery to access the site, which had been coordinated with the village chief and school committee.",
        "content": "<p>Kodam IX\/Udayana has denied accusations of intimidating residents,\ncarrying out forced evictions, and damaging school facilities involving\nIndonesian Army personnel in the controversy surrounding the\nconstruction of the Kopdes Merah Putih (KDMP) in Neowula Village,\nDetusoko District, Ende Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. The Head of\nInformation for Kodam IX\/Udayana, Colonel Inf Amrizal Nasution,\nclarified in Denpasar on Wednesday that information claiming acts of\nviolence or intimidation by TNI personnel did not align with the facts\non the ground. \u201cThere were no acts of intimidation, physical violence,\nor forced eviction attempts by TNI personnel against the community or\neducational facilities at the location,\u201d he said. According to Amrizal,\nthe viral incident began with technical obstacles during the\nmobilisation of heavy equipment, specifically an excavator, to the KDMP\nconstruction site on community-granted land behind SDN Neowula\nelementary school. \u201cThe narrow village access road and the presence of\nthe school\u2019s roof support structure, which was in the heavy equipment\u2019s\nmanoeuvring path, led to technical adjustments being made on site,\u201d he\nstated. The adjustment involved cutting a portion of a support pillar\nlocated in the road access area. This step had been previously\ncoordinated with the Head of Neowula Village and the School Committee so\nthat the heavy equipment could pass without damaging the main school\nbuilding. A similar account was also provided by Neowula Village Head\nVinsensius Papa. He explained that the access used was a village road\nsituated very close to the school building, necessitating a technical\nadjustment that would later be restored.<\/p>",
