When confirmed, the hospital said the incident occurred while cycling across Jalan Sei Belutu, Medan City. Just then, he felt that someone was following him.

"His position is on the left, when I want to see, he immediately pulls my bag. Thank God I wasn't dragged, the pull was strong," he continued.
