JAKARTA - Two suspects in the beating of Ade Armando, Muhammad Bagja and Komar, have been investigated. To investigators, both admitted that they beat them because they were provoked and annoyed by Ade Armando's upload on social media.

"The suspect, Komarudin, beat him because he was provoked by the situation at the TKP," said Head of Public Relations of the Metro Police, Kombes E. Zulpan, to reporters, Wednesday, April 13.

Meanwhile, the suspect, Bagja, admitted to investigators that he was annoyed with Ade Armando. This is because the social media activist uploaded a statement to social media that was deemed inappropriate.

"Bagja conveyed that during the examination the person concerned was annoyed with what the victim had been saying on social media," he said.

Meanwhile, for the suspect Dhia Ul Haq, the motive behind it is not yet known. Because, the suspect Dhia was just arrested today and is still undergoing examination.

For information, in the case of Ade Armando's rape, the police have arrested three suspects. They include Dhia Ul Haq, Muhammad Bagja and Komar.

There are currently three other suspects who are still at large. They include Ade Purnama, Abdul Manaf, and Abdul Latif.
