[Indonesia]: A Bloody Friday

[Zak]

A large fleet of fifteen WZ551 armoured vehicles made their way through the streets of Jakarta, onlookers pondered to what was going on, filling the vehicles were members of Kopassus which was Indonesia's Special Forces Command who were dressed in full combat gear and equipped their AK47 assault rifles. The vehicles stopped outside the Istana Merdeka which was the home of the President of Indonesia who had just woken up - the soldiers dismounted from their vehicles and fired upon the Presidential Security Force agents protecting the perimeter of the residence and opened the gates and sprinted up through the grounds before opening the main door and filing into the residence and fired upon any staff and security who they deemed a threat. They made their way into the office of Joko Widodo and fired upon the agents who protected him and grabbed the President and threw him to the ground whilst a soldier dug his steel capped boot into the neck of the President whilst another ziptied the hands of the President behind his back before sitting him back up on a chair.

​

Onlookers ran in different directions at the sound of gunfire whilst some looked on at the Presidential Palace to see the military vehicles parked outside, the soldiers were greeted with backup as more vehicles had arrived to back their counterparts up and threatened to fire upon the civilians watching on if they didn't back away. Across the city, news, radio and other important infrastructure would be taken over by the Indonesian Military with other important figureheads such as government ministers and local government politicians. A curfew had now been put in place with all of Jakarta ordered to stay at home or face arrest and fines.

More was to come.

The Indonesian Army had now taken control over Jakarta whilst enforcing the curfew which had been set up, only those who were essential workers such as personnel belonging to the health service and fire services would be allowed to head to work and military checkpoints were in force to oversee this. The streets remained desolate as army vehicles made their way through the empty roads to ensure the city had came to a complete standstill. The Indonesian Air Force had also taken over both international airports in Jakarta and had closed the airspace across Jakarta.

A motorcade of three blacked out SUV's arrived at Istana Merdeka and the Minister of Defence of all people exited the vehicle, entering through the doors of the Presidential Palace flanked by soldiers of Indonesia's Special Forces Command who marched behind the Minister of Defence into the building as he made his way to the President's office, taking in the surroundings and locked eyes with the soon to be former President Joko Widodo and gestured for the soldiers to take him away as he settled into the chair.

The Indonesian State Intelligence Agency had blocked access to social media platforms across the country and now, the Minister had the country in his grasps.
