        "summary": "The West Java branch of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) has vehemently condemned the recent assault on Ronald Aristone Sinaga, known as BroRon, who serves as the party's deputy general chairman, describing it as unacceptable thuggery in a nation of law. The incident occurred while BroRon was supporting workers from PT Sinergi Karya Sejahtera in a wage-related audience in central Jakarta, resulting in injuries and the arrest of two suspects. PSI West Java urges a thorough, transparent police investigation to uphold justice, protect democratic freedoms, and prevent such violence from undermining public trust in legal processes.",
        "content": "<p>The West Java Regional Leadership Council of the Indonesian\nSolidarity Party (PSI) has strongly condemned the assault that befell\nDeputy General Chairman of the PSI Central Board, Ronald Aristone\nSinaga, or BroRon as he is affectionately known, in the Menteng area of\nCentral Jakarta recently.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Chairman of the PSI West Java Regional Leadership Council,\nIwan Koswara, views the act of violence as a form of thuggery that\ncannot be tolerated in a constitutional state. He has called on the\npolice to thoroughly investigate all parties involved in the\nincident.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPSI West Java strongly condemns the assault on BroRon. Violence is\nnot a solution to resolving issues. The state must not yield to acts of\nintimidation and thuggery,\u201d said Iwan Koswara on Thursday\n(7\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the incident involving BroRon is not merely an\nattack on an individual but also a threat to citizens\u2019 freedom in\nfighting for rights and justice.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasised that all PSI cadres in West Java provide full support\nfor the ongoing legal process. The assault case against BroRon has drawn\npublic attention after a video of the incident went viral on social\nmedia.<\/p>\n<p>Based on police statements, the incident occurred while BroRon was\naccompanying several employees of PT Sinergi Karya Sejahtera who\nintended to hold an audience regarding wages. The situation then heated\nup, culminating in physical violence.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the incident, BroRon sustained a laceration to his\nright eye and bruising to the back of his head. The police have also\nsecured two suspected perpetrators for further examination.<\/p>\n<p>The PSI Central Board previously called on law enforcement\nauthorities to act decisively against the act.<\/p>\n<p>Iwan added that PSI West Java hopes the case handling is conducted\nprofessionally, transparently, and justly to avoid causing unrest in\nsociety.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe the police are capable of resolving this case\nobjectively. Such violent practices must not be considered normal. All\ncitizens have the right to legal protection,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He also called on all elements of society to maintain a healthy\ndemocratic space by prioritising dialogue and peaceful resolution of\nproblems, rather than through violence or intimidation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDifferences of opinion or labour issues must be resolved through\nlegal channels and good communication. There must be no justification\nfor vigilante actions,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>",
