No Law Sees Indonesia’s Extremist Charities Offering Terrorists More
To strengthen its mitigation strategy, Indonesian authorities should invest in an ‘after-care’ programme that specifically looks after the well-being of the inmates’ families, with the aim of safeguarding them from being radicalised or further radicalised by extremist charities, wrote RSIS Associate Research Fellow Vidia Arianti and Muh Taufiqurrohman, a senior researcher at the Centre for Radicalism and Deradicalisation Studies, (PAKAR), an NGO based in Jakarta. The programme should also ensure that the released inmates renounce violence and reintegrate into society, they added.
