He said from the results of the examination that the group of teenagers who came from a high school (SMA) in Kretek Bantul wanted to attack high school students in the Bambanglipuro area because they wanted to take revenge after their school was visited by high school students in Bambanglipuro.
"The results of the examination showed that the high school students in Kretek did not accept it because when the high school students in Bambanglipuro passed in front of the school they were blowing motorbikes, and it was considered challenging, so the high school students in Kretek took the initiative to retaliate against the school in Bambanglipuro," he said.
However, he said, when a group of teenagers came to the school in Bambanglipuro it turned out that the school was empty because it was late so there were no clashes between students.
