BANJARMASIN - Banjarmasin Police, South Kalimantan (Kalsel), arrested 10 motorcycle groups using sharp weapons who attacked residents on Jalan Pengambangan, East Banjarmasin, Banjarmasin City.

Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Banjarmasin Police, Kompol Thomas Afrian, said that the perpetrators, nine men and one woman, were caught on Sunday (22/10) night on Jalan Ahmad Yani, East Banjarmasin.

"Currently, only 10 people have been arrested, two residents have been injured as a result of the attack by a group of young men armed with sharp weapons," Thomas said as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, October 23.

He said most of the perpetrators were adults, there were some minors but still needed to be matched with other identities to make sure.

"We are still investigating whether it is true that the youth group that attacked residents with sharp weapons was a motorcycle gang or not," he said.

He explained that currently his party is further investigating the motives and modes of the youth who had disturbed the community.

According to information, the youth group toured the Banjarmasin City area carrying sharp weapons, causing several residents to suffer cuts. Some of the evidence was confiscated by officers, namely sharp weapons, motorbikes, and the identities of the perpetrators.

Thomas revealed that based on the results of the interim investigation, the perpetrators usually gather at a market in Banjarmasin City.

He hopes that the Banjarmasin area will be free from all actions by motorcycle gangs, so he asks social media not to cause excessive unrest and does not conclude the news of a group of youths whether the motorcycle gang or not.

"We'll just have to wait for further investigations, so that this case opens up more clearly whether they are a motorcycle gang community or just a group of ordinary youths," he said.
