Prosecutors at the Bandung District Court on Thursday sought a five-and-a-half years jail sentence for Islam Defenders Front (FPI) member, Asep “Utep” Abdurahman, for allegedly damaging the Ahmadiyah An-Nasir mosque in Bandung, West Java, on the eve of Idul Fitri (the Islamic Day of Sacrifice).
Prosecutor Agus Mujoko said that Utep was charged under Article 170 of the Criminal Code on assault, as well as Article 335 on offensive behavior. Dozens of FPI members attended the trial, presided over by judge Sinung Hermawan.
An-Nasir Mosque Bandung, Indonesia.
On October 25, members of the FPI allegedly raided An-Nasir mosque, damaging the place of worship and preventing Ahmadis from celebrating Idul Adha.
The FPI members took three Ahmadis to the Astana Anyar Police precinct and tried to force them to sign an agreement not to hold Idul Adha prayers or slaughter sacrificial animals on the next day.

Justice served well in this case and an example set for the justice department of Indonesia.
It may be recalled that in February 2011, three members of Ahmadiyyah Community were savagely beaten to death in Cikeusik, Banten and convicts were awarded only 3-6 months sentence which aroused an international outcry against the Justice Indonesia.
May Allah accept this justice from Malaysia and grant them more wisdom about the subject.Amen
