The Cakung Police confirmed that a teenager with the initials SB (15) was found dead in the Ujung Menteng Flats, Cakung District, East Jakarta due to suicide.

However, the police did not find any last message or a will left by the victim before taking life.

"So far no one has stored or provided information in the game, nothing. Parents are not willing to do an autopsy and have given a statement not to do an autopsy. Because it was a suicide incident," said Cakung Police Chief Kompol Panji Ali Candra to VOI, Tuesday, October 3.

From the results of the examination by the Cakung Police, the victim's father worked in the North Jakarta area. Meanwhile, the victim's mother works in the South Jakarta area. So the interaction between the parents and the victim is very limited in time.

"This child tends to come to the flats, immediately enter the room, lock (doors) and play games. His parents have been reprimanded several times," he said.

In addition, Kompol Panji said that the victim played games through the Discord application which can interact with foreign people.

"Through the discord application, you can communicate with anyone, the online application. Because he is good at English according to information from teachers at school," he said.
