"The two perpetrators are JS (39) a resident of Pademangan, North Jakarta and SM (25) a resident of Kasemen Serang -Banten who committed the crime of abusing subsidized fuel," said AKBP Wiwin Setiawan in a written statement, Friday, June 10.

Wiwin said, the perpetrator carried out his action by buying diesel at the gas station with a car that had been modified so that it could accommodate a lot.

"The two perpetrators carried out their actions by buying subsidized diesel at the gas station by using a Mitsubishi L-300 box car which has been modified so that it can accommodate 1 ton of diesel," explained Wiwin.

The perpetrators, continued Wiwin, benefited from the difference in prices purchased from gas stations.

"The perpetrators buy subsidized diesel at gas stations for 5,150 rupiah per liter and sell it for 8,000 rupiah. So the perpetrators get a profit of 2,850 per liter. In one tonne of diesel, the actor gets a net profit of 2 million and the SM actor as the driver gets a salary of 400 thousand ," he explained.

Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Lebak Resort Police, AKP Indik Rusmono, added that his party was still carrying out development and investigations related to the case.
