MEDAN - A tragic incident occurred in Belinteng Village, Sei Bingei District, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra. A man named Darwin Sitepu (38), was burned alive by a group of people.
Based on the information obtained, the incident began when the victim was sitting in a hut in Kuta Jering Hamlet, Belinteng Village.
There, Darwin was chatting with his friends, Selamat Tarigan, Darta and David. While they were relaxing they were approached by a group of people, one of them with the initials FD.
Furthermore, FD asked the victim to leave the hut, but the victim did not heed this wish. Because of this, an argument ensued until the perpetrator hit the victim.
When the victim tried to retaliate, the accomplices of the perpetrator's group attacked the victim. In fact, it turns out that he brought gasoline and poured fuel oil on the victim. Without thinking, FD then lit a gas lighter and then burned the victim's body.
Seeing the victim floundering because of the fire, the victim's companions sought help from the residents. They also reported the incident to the police.
That's when FD and his friends ran away. Police who arrived at the scene later found the victim's body already dead.
The Head of Public Relations of the Binjai Police, Iptu Junaidi, confirmed the murder when it was confirmed. Police are now looking for the culprit.
"That's right," said Iptu Junaidi to reporters, Friday, December 3.
However, Iptu Junaidi has not detailed the chronology and motive of the incident. They are currently pursuing the perpetrators.
"Currently, we are still pursuing the suspect and collecting witness (information)," he said.
