Kebayoran Baru Police intelligence unit head Adj. Comr. S. was removed from his post, as he was considered responsible for a stampede during a BlackBerry promotional event that injured dozens of people.

“We have moved him to the South Jakarta Police Office and we are now looking for his replacement,” South Jakarta Police Chief Sr. Comr. Imam Sugianto said on Tuesday as quoted by tribunnews.com.

He said that the officer was negligent in securing the event after giving the permit to the event despite incomplete documents.

“He is not suspended but shifted due to his unit’s negligence. He is now a non-job officer until the case investigation is finished,” said Imam.
