Paper Title
False Arrest Victims Labelling Construction of Terrorism Case Mishandling in Poso Regency
Abstract
Terrorism acts could inflict disability or even death to the innocent victims. More on that matter, terrorism acts also
come with many collateral damages. This research shows that there are many false arrest especially towards Muslims based on
false accusations, vilifications, or groundless premature speculations with no fact and validity whatsoever. Although the
victims are being released, but the victims are labelled by others as in the effect of the accidents. Thus terrorist label are
attached to the victims that presumed as terrorists. This discourse revealed that Indonesian terrorism cases handling, especially
around Poso Regency in Central Sulawesi, are not inline with the official rules and guidelines. In some cases, the suspected
terrorist arrests are based on the labelling construction, thus resulting in a false arrest.
