VIDEO: Viral Istiqlal Illegal Parking Attendant Arrested In Theft Case

JAKARTA - A video of 3 parking attendants collecting a fare of 150,000 rupiah on a car driver parked around the Istiqlal Mosque area, Central Jakarta. There was a debate between the driver and the parking attendant.

The parking attendant even said that 150,000 rupiah did not include cleaning costs and other costs. The perpetrator also admitted that this was indeed illegal parking and the tariff with a fantastic nominal was a common thing in the Istiqlal area.

The jukir also said that if the parking lot saw it, it had the person in charge and would be responsible if any of the visitor's belongings or vehicles were lost. But now, the illegal parking attendant has been arrested by the police. Central Jakarta Metro Police Chief Kombes Susatyo Purnomo Condro confirmed that he would follow up on the incident. He will coordinate with the Satpol PP and the Transportation Service to curb illegal parking around the Istiqlal Mosque. Even the perpetrator's statement to the police, the video that went viral was an old video, about one month ago.

As a clarification, there has never been a handover of 150,000 rupiah from a car driver to a parking attendant. And it turns out that the parking attendants were caught not because of a illegal parking case, but because of another case. One of them is because of the theft case.

Previously, a statement was circulated by the Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, that it would regulate illegal parking. Especially parking in minimarket areas. The parking manager is not allowed to charge a penny or free of charge. Watch the video below.
