The reporting of two protesters by the Director of PT BMU to the South Aceh Police raised the suspicions of the two residents. They reported the South Aceh Police to the Chief of Police because they suspected that there was something odd in the handling of the mining company's report.

Through an unconfirmed letter, the two reported parties, Sutrisno and Jumra, sent a letter to the Chief of Police on August 19, 2023, one day after the date of their summons to the South Aceh Police on August 18, 2023. In the letter to the Chief of Police, it was stated that they were very surprised to receive a summons from the police.

"We were very surprised to receive a summons from the Polres Number B/50N llJ/RES. I.24/2023 dated August 18, 2023, addressed to me, SUTRISNO and summons Number B/49Mll/RES. I.24/2023 dated August 18, 2023 addressed to me JUMRA based on Hj LATIFAH HANUM's report dated August 18, 2023 regarding the alleged crime of Unpleasant Acts," they wrote in the first point.

In the next point, they explained that in the Central Kluet District area of South Aceh Regency, PT Beri Mineral Utama has been operating a gold mine for a long time. This company, he said, has an iron ore IUP OP. "The Aceh ESDM Office around April 2023 has given a written warning," the two residents accused.

It was explained in point 4, that during the visit of the integrated team from Aceh Province to the mine site on July 25, 2023, an agreement was reached with all the people present to stop and close the PT BMU mining operation which was obviously said to have damaged the environment.

Quoting a statement from the Aceh Government's One Stop Integrated Licensing Office through an online media, it was stated that the operating license of PT Beri Mineral Utama (BMU) had been suspended. The step was taken based on an integrated team report dated July 25, 2023 and the results of a meeting with the community at the mine site.

At the end of their letter, the two residents added that the facts on the ground were that PT BMU was still operating. "In fact, until August 17, 2023, PT BMU continued to operate gold mining, resulting in a demonstration from the community to the Kluet Sub-District Office, South Aceh Regency," they explained.

The two residents admitted that they felt strange when the South Aceh Police responded so quickly to the report of the mining company, Hj Latifah Hanum on August 18, 2023, which was submitted on August 18, 2023. Because, on the same date the Polres immediately sent summons to these two residents. "In our opinion, the Aceh Selalan Police should follow up on the alleged illegal mining practices of PT BMU, because the license is iron ore, but mining gold," said this resident.

Not only about the alleged misuse of mining licenses, these residents also accused PT BMU of carrying out exploration in prohibited areas. "According to media reports, almost 90% of PT BMU's mining land is in the Leuser ecosystem area," he concluded.
