“Well, the Kodim people asked for IDR 2 million, bro. Negotiate, negotiate, negotiate, bro. Negotiate, bro, with the TNI, in the end we met with another channel with the DPR. Well, the DPR asked for IDR 1 million and asked to negotiate again. In the end, what they said is that you just look for free – there is nothing free in this world. Our country supports the people, it’s okay. It seems like it’s a mess,” he continued.

“In the midst of these difficult times, I hope there will be no provocative actions and disinformation from certain parties. Including within the TNI, we do not expect any violations and actions that deviate from the provisions. The TNI’s commitment is clear that it will take firm action against every form of violation committed by its soldiers,” he said.
Freddy also provided a video containing clarification on the man who admitted he was involved in extortion along with his parents.In the video, the man known as Muhammad Asyaf apologizes to the TNI institution.
“I want to clarify that I uploaded a video on the 1st of Monday, saying that I was wrong in speaking against the TNI agency. I want to apologize sincerely without being forced by the TNI agency,” said Asyaf.
Still in the video, Asyaf explains that he received information about the request for Rp. 2 million from a group.
“Because I had communication within my group, within the aid volunteers. So I want to apologize profusely to the TNI agency,” he said.
