There have been a number of shootings in Papua in recent months but mystery surrounds the problem of who is responsible.Ruben Magay, the chairman of Commission A of DPRP, the provincial legislative assembly of Papua, said that the failure of the police to deal with this problem was a sign of their lack of professionalism. This is what is worrying the Papuan people, ' he said 'What they are doing is far from what the people expects. and hope for.'He said that he had warned the chief of police and the military commander to stop blaming the OPM. Making such claims is a sign of the lack of ability of the security forces.'
'We can only accuse the OPM if there is clear evidence of their involvement.' He said that the police should also stop talking about unidentified persons. It is only when someone is arrested and charged before a court of law on the basis of evidence that things become clear.' We need to make things clear for the people. It is as though the police are trying to conceal their own incompetence.'
He said for a second time: 'Dont keep talking about the OPM until you have evidence. And don't talk about geographical problems as the facilities available are the ones that have been provided by the state.. Is anything lacking?'
