TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Head of International Division of the Indonesian National Police Inspector General H.S. Maltha said that Indonesia would deploy police attaché in Ankara, Turki, in June this year.
The aim of the move is to prevent Indonesian citizens in Turkey who are going to Syria to join the Islamic State of Iran and Syria (ISIS).
"It is planned that in June, a memorandum of understanding will be signed Turkey. The presence of the police attaché in Ankara is very much needed," said Inspector General H.S. in Jakarta on Friday (31/3).
Maltha added the police would choose three personnel from the National Polices Densus 88 counterterrorism squad to be deployed as Police Attaché in Ankara.
