JAKARTA - Suroto, an online motorcycle taxi driver (ojol) was robbed by his passengers using a kitchen knife in the Ancol area, Pademangan, North Jakarta. Luckily Suroto was not injured even though at that time a kitchen knife was stuck in his stomach.
According to Suroto's confession, at that time he received an order from Teluk Gong to Kota Tua. However, the perpetrator's initial W asked him to take him to the Pluit area.

Along the way, the passenger kept pointing a kitchen knife at Suroto's waist. This man could not fight it for fear of his life being lost. However, in the middle of the trip, the perpetrator again changed his route asking to be delivered to Tanjung Priok.
Arriving in the Ancol area, the perpetrator asked Suroto to get off his motorbike.
"The knife is behind me. Then he told me, you get off, I want to take the motorbike," he said.
Not wanting to lose his motorbike, Suroto stopped his motorbike in front of a shop, on Jalan Lodan Raya, Ancol. Suroto ran to ask for help from local residents.
"Brother, please, sir, I am being held at gunpoint by him," said Suroto.
