​​​​​Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan had previously said that six people had been killed during the riots as of Wednesday morning. "First, Brimob [the National Police's Mobile Brigade] never attacked a mosque. Second, there are photographs supposedly showing foreign Brimob personnel with slanted eyes. We guarantee that all Brimob personnel are purely Indonesian citizens," he said. So, if someone used live rounds it was not the security forces."
