YOGYAKARTA: Members of several muslim organizations descended on Sunan Kalijaga
State Islamic University (UIN) in Yogyakarta [1] to seek clarification
over the campus' decision to ban female students from wearing the niqab.
"We object if the university
really imposed the ban," said Fadlun Amin, a spokesman for the Yogyakarta
branch of the Ukhuwah Islamiyah Forum (FUI), on Wednesday.
The FUI, along with the Yogyakarta Mosque Activists Forum and
several other organizations, asked for a meeting with the campus' management.[2]
They were welcomed by Waryono, the university's deputy rector.
At the meeting, the organizations asked the university
not to put restrictions on students wearing the niqab on campus. [3]
"The UIN is an institution
that can accept differences, so accept it. Let students wear the niqab in accordance with their
faith," said Fadlun who is a lecturer at Ahmad Dahlan University in Yogyakarta.
He added that the university said
there were no specific restrictions. The
organizations also asked for a direct meeting with the rector to clarify the
matter. [4]
"If there are restrictions, we will take further steps,” [5]
Fadlun said.
Waryono welcomed the visit and
dialogue with the organizations, especially the discussions about a tolerant
islam.
He added that the university
would still enact regulations on students, including campus attire.
Rector Yudian Wahyudi said the university decided to prohibit the
niqab and other a counseling program to students [6] in order to
promote a moderate islam dress code as well to prevent religious extremism on
campus.

Student transport driver arrested in Depok for child molestation
The
Jakarta Post | Wed, March 7, 2018 | 01:51 pm
Depok : The Depok Police have arrested the driver of an informal student
pick-up and drop-off service, [7] identified as Rachmat, for molesting
two students on his route.
Rachmat, who has three
grandchildren, allegedly molested the two students, aged 5 and 7, who he drove
to and from their school in Depok, West Java.
Depok Police general crimes chief Comr. Putu Kholis Aryana said the
children had been molested on six separate occasions. [8]
“The perpetrator molested them in the car after school,” [9]
Putu said on Tuesday, as quoted by tribunnews.com. He added that Rachmat lured
the children with candy and food before molesting them.
The police are continuing with their investigation to determine whether
there were more victims. [10]
Putu said the incident came to
light when the victims’ parents became suspicious about the children's
behavior, and that the two victims later told their parents what had happened.
“The parents then reported [the
assault] to the police,” he said, adding that the two victims were still
traumatized by their experience and could not be questioned at the present
time.
Rachmat will be charged under the
Child Protection Law, which carries a maximum sentence of 5 years.
