JAKARTA - Two twin women in Balikpapan City, East Kalimantan, have caused a stir at a mosque after being caught red-handed in a mosque.

The twins had the initials NA and NI, and both were arrested by police at the North Balikpapan Police Headquarters on Wednesday, July 26.

The mosque congregation witnessed this incident when the two women were taking drugs at a mosque toilet booth in the Jalan Soekarno Hatta Kilometer 3, Batu Ampar Village, North Balikpapan District.

Most of the mosque congregation are preparing to perform the midday prayer when they see smoke coming out of the toilet ventilation, and are suspicious of the activities of the two women.

After suspecting the situation, several mosque congregations decided to peek and find the two of them using methamphetamine. They immediately reported the incident to the local Bhabinkamtibmas, and the twin women were then taken to the North Balikpapan Police for further legal proceedings.

When interrogated, one of the suspects, NA, admitted all his actions and revealed that they were deliberately looking for a place that was considered safe to use methamphetamine. Both chose a mosque toilet booth close to their house.

The police confiscated evidence in the form of methamphetamine weighing 0.20 grams, cigarettes, plastic spoons, glass pipettes, and plastic straws from the two suspects.

When secured at the police station, the two twins were still drunk, so the police faced difficulties digging up information from them.
