Jakarta, NU Online
The leader of the controversial Al Qiyadah Al Islamiyah sect, Ahmad Mushaddeq, and six of his followers have turned themselves in to Jakarta Police.
Mushaddeq and his followers are being questioned at the Jakarta Police's criminal investigation directorate, Jakarta Police chief Insp. Gen. Adang Firman said Tuesday.<>
"He and his men came to the Metro Jaya Police Headquarters last night at around 7:30 p.m. to surrender themselves," Adang Firman said.
Firman said police had not yet named them suspects in any criminal cases, but were still gathering evidence.
Police have gathered several pieces of evidence, including four books written by Mushaddeq, recordings and pictures.
Mushaddeq gave himself up after learning through the media that Muslims had strongly reacted against the sect, the Jakarta Police chief said.
Al Qiyadah was founded by Haji Salam, later known as Ahmad Moshaddeq, several years ago in Bogor, West Java.
Moshaddeq declared himself a prophet, which is against Islamic teachings, which says Muhammad is the last prophet.
Al Qiyadah teaches members, among other things, that they do not have to pray five times a day, fast during Ramadhan or go on the haj, which are all compulsory in Islam. (jp/dar)
