  "summary": "The United Indonesian People's Movement (GRIB Jaya) has clarified the presence of its chairperson, Rosario de Marshal, also known as Hercules, during the August 27 riot in Jakarta. According to Wilson Colling, Head of the Legal Division of the Central Executive Board of GRIB Jaya, Hercules was present at the location to observe the security situation and conditions during the incident. His presence was part of persuasive efforts to maintain a conducive environment, not to aggravate the situation or be involved in physical clashes. GRIB Jaya did not instruct its members to participate in the protest-related activities. The Jakarta Metropolitan Police are currently investigating allegations of community organizations' involvement in the riots, but the police declined to comment on Hercules' alleged involvement to prevent the spread of disinformation and hoaxes on social media.",
