Police Get Rid

Amnesty International lambasted the National Police for
its discriminative stance toward sexual minorities
after a 29-year-old brigadier was dishonorably discharged in December because of his sexual orientation.
 that a police officer had been dismissed from the force
because of his sexual orientation
and was now challenging his dismissal at the Semarang State Administrative Court. 

Responding to the issue,
he supported the Central Java Police's decision, saying that
from the perspectives of religion and morality 
it was clear that L was "taboo."
"[It] is also not recognized by the state.

So from these [facts] it is implied that
members of the Indonesian National Police must not be L
and must not have a deviant sexual orientation.
it was "wrong, misleading and discriminative".
the dismissal of TT violated the human rights principles,
especially on equality and non-discrimination in the armed forces.
It also violated National Police Chief Regulation No. 8/2009 on the implementation of the standards and principles of human rights on the police's duties.
Article 4 of the regulation stipulates that
human rights do not distinguish race, ethnicity, ideology, culture, religion, belief, philosophy, social status, gender or sexual orientation,
but prioritize a commitment to mutual respect to create a civilized world.
The dismissal violated Article 6 which stipulates that
in the scope of the National Police's duties, human rights also include the special rights of minority groups.

"So the decision to discharge [TT] clearly violated their own internal regulation.

On a broader scale this is a violation of human rights.

Especially in the world of law enforcement agencies -- whose
duty is to serve and protect citizens based on the principles of equality and non-discrimination,.
Usman urged police to cancel TT's dismissal and
return him to his unit in Semarang.
TT is an hiv and

police learned of TT's private life through an internal investigation.
