Previously, a woman in the Bendungan Hilir area, Central Jakarta, shared her unpleasant experience during morning exercise. He admitted that he was often disturbed by a motorcycle taxi driver who showed intimate organs and did catcalling every time he ran.

This behavior made him feel intimidated to the point of being reluctant to leave the boarding room. Efforts to report to several parties previously were deadlocked because they were deemed to have insufficient evidence.

On a different day when he crossed the Benhil Damkar post, he finally ventured to ask for help.

After hearing the story, the officers immediately responded and went to the location to check the situation. The perpetrator with the initials B was finally found by the firefighter.
