•Gresik residents made to dig graves as punishment for not wearing face masks

•The Jakarta Post Jakarta / Thu, September 10, 2020 / 05:34 pm

•Eight people in Gresik regency, East Java, were ordered by local authorities to dig graves for those
who have died of COVID-19 as punishment for not wearing face masks in public. Cerme district
head, Suyono, said that he punished residents who did not wear face masks by making them dig
graves at a public cemetery in Ngabetan village.

•

• “There are only three available gravediggers at the moment, so I thought I might as well put

• these people to work with them,” said Suyono as quoted by tribunnews.com on Wednesday,
adding that local authorities made sure the health protocol violators did not participate in the
burials. To assist the gravediggers, Suyono assigned two people to each grave. One is tasked with
digging the grave, while the other lays wooden boards inside the hole to support the

• corpse. “Hopefully this can create a deterrent effect against violations,” Suyono said.

•

•He also said the number of COVID-19 cases was continuing to increase in Cerme, prompting the
village administration to strengthen protocols in the village. Based on the Regent Law No. 22/2020,
residents who violate the protocols are subject to fines or community service as punishment.
Separately, Cerme Police chief Adj. Pol. Comm. Moh. Nur Amin said the police would cooperate
with the military to enforce the protocols, such as by dispersing public

• gatherings. “We urge the public to wear face masks in accordance with the COVID-19 health

• protocols,” he said. (dpk)
