For information, this lawsuit was filed by Taufik Umar. He filed a lawsuit of a number of articles in the Act number 23 of 2006 regarding Population Administration (Adminduk Law). In essence, Taufik requested that religious information about KTP and KK be kept secret. According to him, religious information about KTP and KK, in addition to being counterproductive, caused discrimination to violence, so that it was contrary to Article 28i paragraph (1) and paragraph (4) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. He considered the religious column needed as confidential data, such as eye iris and fingerprints. In the previous hearing, Taufik claimed to be a victim of discrimination and a few years ago almost became a victim of murder in the conflict between religious communities in Poso, Central Sulawesi. He tells his experience of experiencing a livestock KTP. “Taufik Umar on the way from Posto to Palu City met a number of KTP cattle, which at the time knew Brother Taufik Umar very much who experienced violence and/or even murder as a result of identification in the religious column, both by Pen-flown by Muslims, as well as of the Christian community,” his lawyer said, Teguh Sugiharto.
