TERNATE - The Mobile Brigade Unit (Brimob) of the North Maluku (Malut) Regional Police (Polda) has invited Ternate City Police investigators to handle an obscene case allegedly committed by a Brimob member with the initials IL.

Dansat Brimob Polda Malut Kombes M. Erwin stated that his party allowed the Ternate Police to process IL, one of his subordinates, who was suspected of having sex with a 17-year-old teenager.

Previously, a member of the North Maluku Police Mobile Brigade with the initials IL had been reported by the victim's father to the Ternate Police.

Therefore, if there are members who take action, especially the sexual abuse of minors, the process is in accordance with community reports.

"I instruct all personnel in the Mobile Brigade of North Maluku Police before taking action to think," he said, quoted by Antara, Friday, May 13.

His party emphasized that they would not protect members who violated the law, especially if the victims were minors.

Members of the Brimob Polda Malut IL are suspected of having sex with a young woman at an inn in Ternate.

IL was previously reported to the Ternate Police. It was reported that he was a resident of Ternate City, S, on suspicion of having sex with a minor.

The victim, a 17-year-old girl who is S's biological child, is suspected of having sexual intercourse with the child last Ramadan at an inn in the city of South Ternate.

The victim's attorney, M. Bahtiar Husni, said the victim was a student of a vocational school in Ternate.

Prior to making the police report, the attorney had tried to mediate with IL but the mediation was deadlocked because IL was reluctant to take responsibility.

"Therefore, on Thursday (12/5) we made an official report at the Ternate Police with allegations of sexual intercourse with a minor and the report was received with Letter Number STPL/09/V/2022/Res Ternate," he said.

After making a report, the victim was sent for post-mortem. Bahtiar hopes that investigators will immediately follow up on the report.
