Kendari - The Kendari Police arrested a husband with the initials IN (28) who dared to abuse his wife AN (24) to death in Ranomeeto District, South Konawe Regency (Konsel), Southeast Sulawesi (Sultra), on Sunday, May 31 at 11.30 Wita.

"The suspected perpetrator was secured by a joint team from the Buser77 URC Team, the Intelmob Intelmob of the South Sulawesi Police, and the Ranomeeto Police," said Head of the Kendari Police Criminal Investigation Unit, AKP Welliwanto Malau, when met in Kendari, Sunday evening, quoted by Antara.

Welliwanto said that the incident was first reported, on Saturday, May 30 at around 23.00 Wita. At that time, it was reported that the victim died in a bruised state on his body.

"According to information, the one who committed domestic violence that caused the victim to die was the victim's husband, initials IN," he said.

After receiving the information, the police team immediately carried out an investigation and managed to secure IN at the crime scene (TKP).

Based on the results of the interrogation, Welliwanto revealed that the perpetrator had abused the victim to the point of death by holding the victim's hands while lying down and then trampling on him.

"After IN felt satisfied enough to beat the victim and the victim asked for forgiveness, the perpetrator then stopped his actions. At that time the victim complained of stomach pain and asked her husband for permission to go to the toilet," said Welliwanto.

Not long after, the victim suddenly fell down and lost consciousness. After checking, the perpetrator continued to try to wake him up. However, the victim did not wake up until he breathed his last breath at their BTN house.

"At the time in the middle room the perpetrator still did not believe that the victim had died, and continued to try to wake the victim up," he explained.

He explained that after confirming that the victim had died, the perpetrator then cleaned it using water to comb the victim's hair.

"At that time, the perpetrator hugged the victim in the hope that the victim could still come back to life," he said.

Welliwanto said that from the perpetrator's statement, he did this because he was jealous of the victim who often cheated on other men.

"Currently, the perpetrator has been secured at the Kendari Police to undergo the applicable legal process," he said.
