JAKARTA - A woman with the initials K is suspected of being the victim of a stabbing by two unidentified men. As a result, the victim suffered a stab wound to the back.

Pasar Minggu Police Chief Kompol Bambang Handoko said the incident occurred at Jalan Harsono RM, Ragunan, Pasar Minggu, South Jakarta, Thursday, April 7, at 04.30 WIB.

"Yes, that's right, just right when I was about to pray at around 4:35 am West Indonesia Time," said Bambang when contacted, Thursday, April 8.

Bambang explained that the incident started when the victim intended to pray Fajr at a mosque near the scene. But suddenly two unknown perpetrators slashed the victim with sharp weapons.

"So the victim was already walking towards the mosque, just like that, suddenly he was stabbed from behind," he said.

Bambang admitted that his party was investigating the motives of the perpetrators. The reason is that judging from the appearance of the victim, it is suspected that the perpetrator's goal was not to rob. Because there are no electronics or jewelry worn by the perpetrators.

"It's definitely there, we'll definitely carry out an investigation, want to reveal. We didn't bring (valuable items) at all, but instead it looks like we're sorry that it's been poorly managed. If we look at the condition, we don't believe it either," said Bambang.

"Unless for example the women wear jewelry or what clothes. We are even suspicious, this is actually what we don't believe, seeing the condition," he continued.

Due to this incident, his party will intensify patrols in vulnerable areas. This is done to prevent similar incidents from happening.

"We have anticipated patrolling efforts in the vicinity, even if we have strong points, right. Indeed, the area is already included in the scope of our patrol," he said.

The victim has been taken to the hospital for help.

"We'll take him to the hospital. The term is not too deep or severe, it's just a wound," he said.
