MATARAM - West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Regional Police Investigators have completed the handling of a criminal case of trafficking in persons (TPPO) to Turkey involving two suspects with the initials SH and DH from East Lombok Regency.
"Because we have carried out stage two, the evidence and two suspects have been handed over to the prosecutor, so the handling of this case has been completed at the investigation stage," said the Head of the Sub-Section for Youth, Children and Women (Renakta) of the Directorate of General Criminal Investigation (Ditreskrimum) of the Regional Police. NTB AKBP Ni Made Pujawati in Mataram was reported by Antara, Wednesday, May 18.
Regarding this information, the spokesman for the NTB Prosecutor's Office, Efien Saputra, said that his party is now following up by preparing an indictment for the needs of the trial.
He confirmed that this case had been transferred to the East Lombok District Attorney. The two suspects have also been detained by prosecutors at the Selong Detention Center, East Lombok Regency.
"Because the locus and the witnesses are in East Lombok, the trial of this case will take place at the East Lombok District Court," he said.
The role of SH and DH was revealed as the party who dispatched the female victim with the initials LS (19). DH acts as a job seeker, while SH acts as a LS sender to Jakarta.
DH recruited LS to work in Turkey with the lure of a salary of IDR 21 million per month. As a result, LS was willing to be dispatched. Before leaving, LS got fit money or pocket money from SH worth IDR 3 million.
By being willing to go through the SH agent, LS is accommodated in Jakarta, which is connected to a central agent with the initials AQ. AQ's whereabouts are still being sought by the police.
When sent to Turkey, LS received harsh treatment from the employer. He also fled to the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia (KBRI) in Ankara, Turkey.
With the LS report, the roles of SH and LH were revealed. Both were arrested by the police in January 2022, at their respective residences in the East Lombok Regency area.
Both were arrested based on a follow-up to the report of the victim LS, who was sent home by the Indonesian Embassy in Ankara, Turkey, on September 11, 2021.
From the report, SH and DH allegedly dispatched the victim without permission and procedures. Evidence of this act has been found from the results of police investigations.
Therefore, from the results of the police case, SH and DH were designated as suspects who were suspected of Article 10 and or Article 11 Juncto Article 4 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 21/2007 regarding the eradication of TIP and Article 81 and or 83 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 18/ 2017 concerning the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers.
