SOUTH TANGERANG - On the 3rd day of Ramadan, a dozen teenagers were arrested by the police. They were arrested on suspicion of going to a brawl in the Pondok Aren area, South Tangerang.

The Head of Pondok Aren Police, Commissioner Dimas Aditya, said the 15 children were taken into custody just before dawn, Tuesday, April 5, in the early hours of the morning.

"We have secured 7 people who will carry out brawl activities from Cikini Jurangmangu village and approached the village from the work cottage," Dimas told VOI, Tuesday, April 5, early in the morning.

"Secondly we secured 8 people. So in total, we have secured 15 people (minors)," he added.

Dimas explained that at first, it started with reports from the public who saw a group of teenagers gathering, indicating that they were going to do a brawl.

The police who received the report immediately acted quickly and immediately arrested the 15 teenagers. Dimas said, from the children's hands, his party secured evidence of cellphones and gloves filled with stones.

"We secured evidence of a sarong containing stones and a cellphone containing a chat invitation to fight," he explained.

The next step, Dimas said, would be to report to the school and the teenager's parents so that they educate their children, in order to prevent similar incidents.

"We will invite his parents from the Neighborhood Unit and Neighborhood Association schools so that we can return them to their respective homes," he said.

Dimas appealed to parents at home to keep an eye on their children after tarawih and after dawn. This is done to prevent brawls.

"We urge their children when they finish the tarawih prayer to rest at home without being overwhelmed and maybe they can be seen where they are after the tarawih prayer and when they are approaching sahur and after sahur," he said.
