Meanwhile, Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of Malang Police, Iptu Wahyu Rizki Saputro, said the two perpetrators had planned murder to control the victim's belongings since June 1, 2023. Both of them did not have a job. "The two suspects had planned from the start, they wanted to find a vehicle by killing. Because they knew, when the driver was traveling to men, then at the time the car would be taken, there would be resistance," Wahyu said. The two perpetrators had planned carefully regarding their respective duties when they were about to carry out the action. The victim was a random target of the perpetrator, in accordance with orders on online taxi applications. "The victim is a taxi driver, the suspect and the victim do not know each other. The two suspects are both in debt, currently still deepening because if they are reckless like that there are already very many (debt)," he said. Both are charged with Article 340 of the Criminal Code (KUHP), subsidiary Article 338 of the Criminal Code and Article 365 paragraph 3 and paragraph 4 of the Criminal Code with a maximum threat of the death penalty.
