A banner rejecting terrorism was unfolded when a group of residents held an action calling for the refusal of the repatriation of around 600 Indonesians who joined the Islamic State militia in Iraq and Syria (NIIS) at Taman Pandang Istana in the National Monument area, Jakarta, on Monday (10/2/2020).

Terrorism still threatens us. At a time when the nation has been hit by a pandemic, the National Police Anti-Terror Squad Special Detachment (Densus88) has been still busy arresting suspected terrorists.

Not to mention their preventive deradicalization efforts. As of the end of 2019, the number of terrorism prisoners was around 400 while the number of terrorist detainees was 190. They were in 90 correctional institutions and three state detention centers in 26 provinces. Instead of being deradicalized, the inmates experienced quite the opposite. They were radicalized further at many prisons. The rate of recidivism among convicted terrorists in Indonesia is still high, at around 8 percent.
