PACITAN - JW alias JB (35), the captain of KM Restu who was named a suspect in the case of catching seven dolphins in Pacitan, East Java, admitted that he was fun and did not have any motive when taking videos of marine mammals such as spinning dolphins or spinner dolphins caught in the purse seine net.
"Just for fun. There is no other motive," answered JW, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, January 11.
He didn't realize his rash act would be a big problem for him and the rest of the crew. JW was amazed, then spontaneously wanted to take pictures in the form of photos and videos, from behind the wheel of the boat towards the seven dolphins lying on the deck.
"Because (I) have never found dolphins caught in nets. Moreover, there are up to seven of them," he said.
Spontaneously, he uploaded the content to social media. In just a matter of minutes, uploads of JW photos and videos quickly spread widely on social media, both on Facebook, Instagram to WhatsApp conversation channels, and other applications.
Netizens were in an uproar. The fishermen involved in the "catching" of the "long-beaked dolphin" or "spinner dolphin" were accused of deliberately hunting and even slaughtering them. Whereas dolphins are protected marine mammals.
"Yes, I just wonder. Because I've never been hit like that. It's the first time, never, before" he said.
The police did not remain silent. An investigation was immediately carried out in collaboration with the East Java Natural Resources Conservation Center (BBKSDA).
Even the ship that was suspected of carrying the dolphin was intercepted before it could land. It's just that no evidence was found.
The helmsman or captain of KM Restu with the initials JW alias BJ (35) was later named the main/single suspect.
However, the punishment is not because he deliberately leads the hunt for dolphins or is caught accidentally and then leaves the dolphins dead, but because he is doing illegal fishing.
JW is also being targeted by the Act on the Conservation of Natural Resources and Ecosystems related to the case of catching seven dolphins.
