BANDUNG - West Java Regional Police (Polda) arrested the killer of Casiniah (62), the mother of DPR member Bambang Hermanto, who was found dead unnaturally at her home in Sukra District, Indramayu Regency, West Java.

The Head of Public Relations of the West Java Police, Kombes Ibrahim Tompo, said the perpetrator was a person who used to work at Casinih's house. However, Ibrahim has so far not mentioned in detail the identity of the perpetrator.

"The suspect has been arrested, namely workers who often work at their homes, often clean at their homes," Ibrahim said in Bandung as reported by ANTARA, Friday, May 26.

Ibrahim explained that the murder incident allegedly occurred on Thursday (25/5). The perpetrator was arrested in less than 24 hours after killing.

"Meanwhile, the perpetrators are only one, the motive is still being investigated because they have just been caught," he said.

Previously, Ibrahim explained that Casinih was found dead at his house in an unnatural condition because the victim was found bound and his head was covered in a cloth.

The case was first discovered by Adam, who is the son of Casinih. Adam visited his mother's house because he was suspicious of his mother who had not left the house since Thursday (25/5).

Adam then broke down the door of his mother's house because he did not respond when he knocked on the door. Finally Adam found his mother in a lifeless condition.
