inp.polri.go.id - North Kalimantan. The North Kalimantan Regional Police Vital Object Security Directorate has implemented security measures in several large mosques in Tarakan City to ensure peace and security during Ramadan.

This initiative is a form of police responsibility in providing protection to Muslims when carrying out Ramadan worship, such as Taraweeh and other religious activities.

In the police operations, traffic arrangements around important mosques are carried out. Such vital mosques  are the At-Taqwa Mosque and the Al Aqsho Mosque, which are known to experience an increase in the number of worshipers during the month of Ramadan.

Police personnel went directly to the field with detailed security efforts. They optimized their tasks in the field, including implementing security and traffic management, which are expected to ensure smooth traffic flow around the mosque, avoid congestion, and no less importantly prevent potential security disturbances that could disrupt the solemnity of the Taraweeh prayer.

The presence of police officers is not only limited to guarding places of worship during Ramadan, but also involves anticipatory strategies for various potential risks that may occur.

This proactive initiative by the police is expected to be an example of the police's duties in maintaining the security and comfort of Muslim worship, especially during the holy month of Ramadan.
