KOK-HANITA Ignores the Appointment Rules
After the incident that took place in Baguia on 8 March 2015 and a revious incident that damaged public and communities’ possessions the government of Timor-Leste issued a resolution; according to the RDTL constitution line d) No. 1 article 115 about the government competency to secure public order and social discipline. The resolution No. 11/2015, was issued on March 11 by the Council of Minister to prevent criminal acts committed by illegal groups. Impose to the government adopts a joint action of defense and security force according to the law No 2/2010, the national security law No.3) of article 36 order.
Based on the resolution itself is approved the joint operational appointment of the PNTL and F-FDTL in order to prevent and repress criminal acts of the illegal group that intends to create instability for the country, through the joint operation’s action should use force proportionally.
Regarding this the Council of Ministers issued a further government resolution No. 12/2015 on March 18 which approved the appointment rules to the F-FDTL on 12 March 2015, after consulting with the National Parliament and informed to the Republic President for further rectifying. This appointment rule was rectified on the 17th March 2015 as a decree of the Republic President No. 4/2015 on March 18.
These appointment rules to the force/division were designed to respect the rights, freedom, guarantee citizens’ human rights, legal rights and correspond to international norms. Timor-Leste has as well rectified some important conventions such as the National Parliament with the resolution No.9/2003 September 17 which updated the definitions of the convention against torture and cruel treatment, inhuman or degrading acts, which was approved on 10 December 2002 and also updated the regulations protecting the relatives of victims from army conflict.
Therefore, the appointment rules of force-division that were put into action in the appointment of the joint operations for using force as mentioned on the article 7 of the law No. 02/2010, April 21 of the National Security Law.
1. Using force and threats by the defense force the security service will be in accordance with the constitution and the Convention of International Human Rights that apply in Timor-Leste.
2. Using force or the threat of force to control, policy and juridical from the definition of the performance rules.
3. Rules of the commitment for force and people, in all levels of the commander, will define the circumstance, condition, rank and forms which were used by these forces.
4. Rules of the commitment are conform to right, liberty and ensure the citizens and/people rights, the legal principle, particularly norms of rights from the International which already applied.
5. Rules of commitment is according to the type of force from the overall entity is forming the integrate system for the national security, which is away from the defense case, only people and do protection for force.
6. Rules of commitment for the FALINTIL-FDTL (F-FDTL) will be presented by the chief state major general of the army force and the national police of Timor-Leste (PNTL) by the PNTL general command, approval, on these two cases of the council of minister and made rectifying from the republic president while involve the performance from the F-FDTL.
To obey the appointment rules, FM on its “Mahein Nia Lian 99” report has demanded that KOK-HANITA obey the approval rules and other laws that regulate acts of defense and security forces.
The operation has been ongoing for the past three months since March 2015 and some members of the illegal group “Maubere Revolutionary Council” (KRM) have already surrendered to KOK-HANITA for further processing. Despite this the main objectives of this operation to find the group’s leader, Mauk Moruk, has not yet been achieved depsite the state spending 2 million dollars (US) on this operation so far.
While the operation is ongoing an incident took place on 28 June 2015, where a member of KOK-HANITA was wounded, shot in the leg by a suspected member of the KRM. Because of that incident the operation has intensified (days and nights) in the Laga area of Baucau.
After the incident (on 28 June 2015 in Laga), KOK-HANITA on national media announced a stop to public transport movements and started holding check points in the operational area to all citizens except for those involved in the operation itself.
The operation is trying ever harder to find the former commander Mauk Moruk and his group in areas suspected to have hidden. This however has corresponded with an increase in violence with a fatal incident taking place on 2nd of July 2015 when a resident of Baguia was shot dead by a suspected member of the KOK-HANITA operation.
Another incident of KOK-HANITA operations in the area was the use of physical aggression against a judge of the Baucau court on the way from Dili to Baucau on 28 June 2015. There has also been the use of aggression against the medical staff in the Saelari village of Laga on 1 July 2015 as it was suspected that they support the group of Mauk Moruk. Regarding this last case in Saelari, members of KOK-HANITA informed all medical staffs and residents that there is currently a state of siege or emergency to justify their actions.
Here, FM considers the actions of KOK-HANITA are out of proportion and defy the regulations they have been given, as members of KOK-HANITA use physical power and intimidation and limiting peoples movement under the justification that the area is in a state of siege or emergency. However, according to the resolution No.11/2015 March 11, issued by the Council of Minister the purpose of this operation is to prevent and repress the criminal acts from illegal group and is not a declaration of a state of siege or emergency.
These situations have impeded to residents’ activities, FM’s monitoring noted that some schools in Laga does not going well, because KOK-HANITA forbade residents there not going to Baucau for buying rice or other necessities.
Meanwhile, the medical post in Saelari has been temporarily closed due to the medical staff that got assaulted by a member of KOK-HANITA is being treated in Laga. KOK-HANITA suspected that this medical staff supported medical assistance to Mauk Moruk when in fact this staff has only provided medical assistance to KOK-HANITA in Saelari area as well.
Apart from that, members of KOK-HANITA has not authorized businessmen to sell basic necessities such as rice in Laga, as they suspect some residents are providing logistic assistances for Mauk Moruk. This has put extra strain on the residents of the area to lead a normal life and buy the necessities of life.
So far, KOK-HANITA told people to cooperate, however the people of Laga are unsure whether the KOK-HANITA presence in their area is to make them more secure or to threaten and intimidate them. How can cooperation from the community be secured under these conditions?
So far the answer to this is no. The people of Saelari-Laga who have been affected by this operation have been asked evacuate to another area so the KOK-HANITA can be free to carry out their operation. These concern have been strongly debated by the national parliament members as these innocent people have become victims of the joint operation, however so far no action has been forthcoming.
Recommendations
Regarding such situations, FM considers KOK-HANITA’s acts have ignored the appointment rule, law and conventions that have been rectified by Timor-Leste; FM recommends:
• The President of the Republic act as a supreme commander of the army to call on KOK-HANITA to obey the appointment rule according to resolutions that have been issued by the government, and rectified by the President; because victims are increasing and more people are dying as a result of KOK-HANITA operation.
• National leaders together with religious figures to approach the former commander Mauk Moruk in a peaceful way and create dialogue in order to strengthen the national unity.
• The old former commander Mauk Moruk to give up and contribute for justice.
• Public ministry to investigate and process cases that have been committed by members of KOK-HANITA during the operation.
• KOK-HANITA should investigate and apply disciplinary processes for members who committed discipline infractions, such as a declaration that is reported by the spokesperson of KOK-HANITA.
