        "content": "<p>Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has defended a security guard named\nVicol who was involved in a clash with a Toyota Alphard driver in the\nBundaran HI area, Central Jakarta. Vicol was known to have struck the\nwindow of the Alphard, which allegedly ran a red light. The action was\ntaken out of concern for the safety of pedestrians who were crossing at\nthe time. Pramono assessed that Vicol had performed his duties well.\nBased on CCTV data, he revealed that the Alphard driver had actually\ncommitted a violation. \u201cThe person concerned actually carried out his\nduties very well. And it appears that the Alphard was the one that\nviolated the rules,\u201d Pramono told reporters on Friday, 24 July 2026.\nPramono then requested that the security guard named Vicol not be\nsubject to dismissal sanctions as a result of his actions. \u201cAs for the\nfate of the security guard, I will ask that he not be dismissed or\ndischarged,\u201d he concluded. Previously, a video of the altercation\nbetween a security guard and a Toyota Alphard driver in the Hotel\nIndonesia Roundabout area, Central Jakarta, had been widely discussed.\nAmidst the public spotlight, the security guard, Vicol, finally gave his\nexplanation regarding the incident which ended in mediation at the\nThamrin Police Post. Vicol admitted that he did strike the window of the\nAlphard which allegedly ran a red light. However, the action was taken\nspontaneously out of concern for endangering pedestrians who were\ncrossing at the time. \u201cAfter the red light came on, it was the\npedestrians\u2019 turn to cross. At that moment, one of the cars ran the red\nlight,\u201d he said in a circulating video recording. According to Vicol,\nhis emotions were triggered seeing the vehicle continue to move when\npedestrians had the right to cross. He knocked on the car window while\nreminding the driver. \u201cBecause I was annoyed, I hit the car window. I\nshouted, \u2018Hey, red light,\u2019\u201d he said. The situation escalated after three\npeople got out of the car, including the driver. Vicol admitted to being\ninvolved in a shoving match.<\/p>",
