Kepolisian Resor Kota (Polresta) Jogja wouldn’t allow the International Women's Day demonstration by the Front Perjuangan Rakyat (FPR). The Rally is planned to take place around Jalan Malioboro on March 8, 2021. This policy is suspected to be the impact of the local regulation regarding the prohibition of demonstrations in Malioboro. FPR spokesperson Anna Mariyana Ulfa said, on March 1, 2021, they sent a letter notifying the rally to the Police. But on that same day, they received a reply to a letter regarding the refusal of the protest notification.
