Previously, the Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Karyoto said that his party did not want to speculate on the shooting case. Explanations will be made through official statements or press conferences.

"I don't want to speculate, we met with the Central Jakarta Police Chief and others, it's true at 11.24 WIB that an unknown man entered the MUI building to meet. But in Pamdal he was detained because it was not clear who he wanted to meet. " said Karyoto at the MUI office.

Karyoto continued, officers also found small grains of bullets and gas cylinders. Thus, the statement of the perpetrator using an air softgun is very close to the facts.

The so-called air softgun, not a firearm. For details, we will ask for it to the Labfor. Then there was indeed one victim who was shot in the back. The suspect (suspect) came out, the same as Pamdal and the employee inside. Then he was arrested, for a while this perpetrator fainted. He was taken to the police station, and is currently at the Menteng Health Center. Currently his condition is dead. And this perpetrator has a KTP, a domicile in Lampung. We will also autopsy what are the reasons concerned. Do you still have the disease that cannot be concluded. We must examine the shooting wound, it is hoped that the background of the documents regarding what this suspect wants." Karyoto said.
