JAKARTA The police revealed that Ghana's citizen (WN) with the initials KUV, who went berserk in the Kalibata City Apartment area, Pancoran, South Jakarta, tested positive for amphetamine (shabu) at the time of the incident.

Head of Public Relations of the South Jakarta Metro Police, Kompol Murohil, said the perpetrator immediately underwent a urine test after being secured. The results showed that KUV was positive for taking drugs.

"The results of the urine check are also positive for amphetamine," said Murohil to reporters at the South Jakarta Metro Police, Monday, April 28.

In addition to drug investigations, the police also conducted a psychiatric evaluation of KUV to determine his mental condition at the time of the incident.

"We also did a mental examination," said Murohil.

Currently, KUV is still undergoing medical treatment at the Kramat Jati Police Hospital, due to injuries when secured by officers.

"The wound is not too heavy. However, due to the effects of drugs, he lost control and his emotions became high," explained Murohil.

After the treatment process is complete, KUV will undergo an examination related to cases of abuse and vandalism. The police have also coordinated with the South Jakarta Immigration Office regarding the possible deportation of the perpetrators.

"We have communicated with the immigration authorities, but the follow-up decision is waiting for the police process," he added.

Series Of Violence

The Head of Public Relations of the Polda Metro Jaya, Kombes Pol Ade Ary Syam Indradi, explained that the KUV violence began with the persecution of a paintman with the initials AR, who was hit in the neck and ear.

It didn't stop there, KUV also damaged the corridor lights in one apartment unit, and again abused another resident with the initials AM, by hitting him with a synthetic lamp.

"Out of fear, victim AM fled to the apartment lobby to report to security officers," said Ade Ary.

Moments later, KUV threw a small table from his apartment unit (G.20 CC) and hit a Honda CR-V car numbered B 1780 JFE, causing damage to the right rearview mirror.

Had Time To Take Children And Rampage In Supermarkets

The situation became even more tense when KUV came down with a knife and took his four-year-old biological child hostage. He then took the child out by car, and stopped at the mall entrance.

"To prevent the situation from getting worse, Pancoran Police personnel assisted by the apartment security team immediately moved to secure the situation. However, the perpetrators were not cooperative and fled to the Farmers Market area," continued Ade Ary.

In the supermarket, KUV again went berserk and damaged various items. Luckily, at around 20.00 WIB, the police together with security officers managed to secure the perpetrator and save the child he was holding hostage.
