        "content": "<p>The West Java Regional Office of the Directorate General of\nCorrections (Ditjenpas) has proposed 1,454 inmates for amnesty from\nPresident Prabowo Subianto.<\/p>\n<p>Head of the Guidance Division at the West Java Ditjenpas Regional\nOffice, Ishadi Maja Prayitno, said that of that number, around 1,100\ninmates fall under the national amnesty programme.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are actually still waiting for the amnesty decree. There are\n1,454 amnesty decrees still awaiting the President\u2019s signature,\u201d Ishadi\nsaid in Bandung on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf the 1,454 amnesty decrees, around 1,100 are for the national\namnesty programme. So they will be included in something like the\nReserve Component (Komcad),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, implementation of the programme is still awaiting\noperational guidelines (juklak) and technical guidelines (juknis) from\nthe government.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, he said, around 354 other inmates fall under the\nhumanitarian amnesty category. They consist of inmates with specific\nconditions, such as prolonged illness and advanced age.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe remainder are humanitarian amnesty cases. Prolonged illness,\nelderly, and so on. They will be released directly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Ishadi said the amnesty proposals were submitted in 2026. For\nrecipients of the national amnesty specifically, one of the requirements\nis that they be aged between 18 and 40 years.<\/p>\n<p>However, recipients of the national amnesty will not be released\nimmediately once the decree is issued. They are still required to\nundergo training, the mechanism for which is currently being prepared by\nthe government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExcept for the national amnesty recipients, who must undergo\ntraining first. As for the operational and technical guidelines, we are\nstill waiting for them from the government,\u201d Ishadi said.<\/p>\n<p>He said the training for national amnesty recipients is planned to\nhave a concept roughly similar to the Reserve Component (Komcad)\nprogramme, but with a shorter training period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt will be more or less like Komcad, but perhaps more condensed due\nto cost considerations. However, the plan is for them to be placed at\nthe Brimob facility in Cikeas. We will hand over the training to our\ncolleagues in the National Police,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
