CILEGON - The Cilegon Police Saber Extortion Task Force arrested three people suspected of committing parking extortion in the Anyer Lighthouse area. The three imposed parking rates of IDR 50,000 per car and IDR 20,000 for motorbikes. One of them is the ASN Director General of Hubla Kemenhub RI.
The three people are AP (53 years), MY (43 years), and AA (39 years).
AP has the status of a State Civil Apparatus (ASN) with the position of guard or operator of the Tanjung Priuk Class I District Lighthouse, Director General of Hubla Kemenhub RI.
Meanwhile, MY and AA are parking attendants in the Anyer Lighthouse area.
"That the Anyer Lighthouse area is an asset belonging to the Class I Tanjung Priuk District, the Director General of Hubla, the Ministry of Transportation of the Republic of Indonesia, which is opened to the public as a beach tourism destination," said Cilegon Police Chief AKBP Sigit Haryono in Cilegon, Saturday, May 7.
According to the Head of the Cilegon Police, the parking attendant claimed to be a member of the Karang Taruna Bojong Village, Anyer District. They set a tariff of IDR 50,000 for a car and IDR 20,000 per motorbike.
