"The step is taken to cut the chain of the spread of COVID-19 in which the number of patients testing positive for the virus has increased every day," spokesman for the West Jakarta Metropolitan Police Resort First Inspector Sudarman stated on Friday.
The disinfectant fluid was sprayed in the detention house, starting from its entrance, visiting rooms, place of worship, and CCTV room to each block of the detention room, twice a week since the COVID-19 outbreak occurred in the capital.
The police will continue to spray disinfectant fluid in the detention room until the COVID-19 outbreak is completely overcome, he noted.
