There Is No Clear Point About The Cause Of The Fire At The AGO

JAKARTA - Bareskrim Polri has yet to find any indication of the intention behind the burning of the main building of the Attorney General's Office. The investigation process to date has examined 128 witnesses.

"There is no (indication of intent), we are still investigating. So far there have been 128 witnesses," said Head of Public Relations of the National Police, Inspector General Argo Yuwono to reporters, Thursday, September 10.

The investigation process takes a long time because it is still waiting for the results of examination of samples by the Forensic Laboratory (Labfor). Some of the samples examined were charcoal and burnt wires.

"Of course we are still waiting for the results of the Forensic Laboratory, and later there will also be some analysis from the investigators from the witness testimony there," said Argo.

Meanwhile, regarding the CCTV inspection, Argo said that his party had done it. But it did not explain the interim results of the examination.

"We have read some there too," he said.

Police Public Relations Division Karo Penmas, Brigadier General Awi Setiyono previously said that during the investigation into the cause of the fire, 105 people had been questioned. Hundreds of witnesses were from internal prosecutors.

However, the police have not been able to determine the cause of the fire at the Attorney General's Building. Because, until now, his party is still conducting an investigation. Including the Labfor team is still examining ash and charcoal samples previously taken from the scene.

"It's still a process. We'll wait whether it's a disaster or other factors," said Awi.

The AGO building caught fire on Saturday, August 22 at 19.10 WIB. It is suspected that the fire came from the third floor. However, it is not certain what caused the fire to appear.
