JAKARTA - The police finally shot the leg of IS (30) the perpetrator of the rape and kidnapping of a woman with the initials WA (21) from North Kalimantan in Makassar, while being arrested for escaping when arriving from Tanjung Perak Port, Surabaya, East Java, on Saturday night (16/5).
"Because there was indeed an act of resistance when he arrived in Makassar, then a paralyzing action was taken against the perpetrator," said Makassar Police Chief Kombes Pol Arya Perdana at the Makassar Police Headquarters, South Sulawesi, Sunday.
The arrest of the perpetrator after previously fleeing after committing his heinous act of raping the victim and imprisoning him for three days since Friday (8/5) at the elite Perumahan Jalan Metro Tanjung Bunga, Barombong area, Makassar.
Initially, the perpetrator was estimated to have fled to Sumatra, but later it was known that he was fleeing Surabaya by boarding a boat. The joint team of Surabaya Police and Tanjung Perak KP3 Police and the Jatanras team of Makassar Police finally arrested him.
"When this perpetrator got off the boat, he was arrested (by the joint team) and taken to Makassar last night," said the former Metro Depok Police Chief.
Once in Makassar City, the perpetrator tried to fight and run away, so the officers were forced to take firm and measured action by paralyzing his legs with a hot lead bullet.
Arya explained that the modus operandi of the perpetrator, who is now a suspect, is indeed opening job vacancies through the social media Facebook online for the position of babysitter or baby sitter.
"The victim read on Facebook and was interested and contacted, he was told to come to this perpetrator's house. When at the perpetrator's house, this perpetrator said that the job was not yet available, so he asked to work as a domestic helper first," he said.
After working for two days as a House Assistant (ART) at the perpetrator's house, the perpetrator suddenly entered the room with a lust to have sex with the victim. In addition to raping her, the victim's belongings were also taken away.
"After that, two days as a domestic helper, suddenly on the third day this perpetrator entered the victim's room and threatened with a cutter not to speak, not to scream, and the point was that this victim was raped," he said.
"After being raped, the victim's money was also taken, the cellphone was taken, the motorcycle was also taken and sold," said Arya.
"This depraved act was not just once, but several times," he said. The victim was also held captive for several days at the perpetrator's rented house.
"After being raped several times, the victim finally (escaped), previously the victim was also kidnapped, his mouth was covered with duct tape, his hands were also tied with duct tape. The victim finally managed to and tried to escape and escape from the house," he said.
From the information obtained, and checking the truth, the house turned out to be contracted by the perpetrator per day. The rent was Rp. 300 thousand, and not a monthly or annual rent, but per day.
"After that, the victim (saved himself) reported to the police and we conducted an investigation. But it turns out that this perpetrator has fled," he said again.
Currently, the perpetrator is being held in the Makassar Police detention cell to undergo an examination after being paralyzed after being arrested by a joint team at the Tanjung Perak Port, Surabaya.
