Here's Why, Why Drug-Inspired Violence Can Be More Dangerous
JAKARTA - Central Jakarta Metro Police said that the perpetrators of street crimes in Central Jakarta often used drugs before carrying out a crime.
Based on data from the arrests of criminals carried out by the Central Jakarta Metro Police Criminal Investigation Unit, criminals always use or abuse narcotics in each of their actions.
This was proven after a urine test was carried out on the perpetrators of the crime and the results were positive for methamphetamine.
Central Jakarta Metro Police Deputy Chief AKBP Setyo Koes Heryanto said street criminals tend to often use drugs to increase their nerves. Like what ADR alias Mask did with his gang before taking action, ADR partyed with methamphetamine drugs.
"Based on the use of drugs before carrying out the crime. The suspect was ADR at a crystal methamphetamine party in Pulogadung, East Jakarta," he told reporters, Tuesday, November 16.
In line with Setyo Koes Heryanto, the Jakarta Provincial National Narcotics Agency (BNNP) Rehabilitation assessment team, Dr. Nadia said there was a link between the perpetrators of crime and drugs.
According to him, the correlation between methamphetamine or shabu users with violence, methamphetamine or shabu in narcotics is classified as stimulants or substances that cause increased activity.
He said, the effect (drug use) to excessive mood causes a user to have an increase in mood.
"If he basically commits violence, usually the mood for violence will be even higher," Nadiah told VOI, Tuesday, November 16.
He further said, because the function of methamphetamine or methamphetamine in the brain will stimulate the release of Dopamine.
"It is very clear when the use of methamphetamine is correlated with crime. Because there is an increase in motor skills, self-confidence, focus. So if he commits violence he will be even more courageous," he said.
The effects of long-term drug use, he continued, there are mental disorders, heart damage, organ damage in the body and brain.
Narcotics users, he continued, were generally of productive age.
"Lastly, we hold the productive age, around 20-40 years old. Meanwhile, the school age trend is different, there are synthetic tobacco, synthetic marijuana, a lot of synthetic ones," he said.
