JAKARTA - The case of the murder of a woman with the initials Y (19) who died in a boarding house room, Klender Village, Duren Sawit District, East Jakarta, was apparently discovered by the neighbor of the victim's boarding house.

According to the testimony of Diah Noviani (37), a neighbor of the victim's boarding house, she had heard the victim had a big fight with the perpetrator who was none other than the victim's own girlfriend on Sunday, July 17, night.

"When I was at the dalem (boarding house), I just heard fighting," Diah told reporters, Monday, July 18.

In the fight, continued Diah, victim Y protested because he was beaten by the perpetrator.

"Last night heard 'why did you hit me?' That's all I hear," he said.

Diah said that she did not want to interfere in the quarrel between the two lovers.

"Listen to them fighting, okay, because I've never interfered, I'm afraid he doesn't want to be defended either, it's useless," he said.

Finally, after the fight, he did not hear the voice of the man who killed Y.

He was shocked when he learned that Y had died lying in room number S-36 of the boarding house. It is suspected that Y was killed by his own girlfriend by strangling.

Diah explained that victim Y was an immigrant woman from Lampung. He lives in Jakarta without any relatives. To earn an income, Y works at a billiard place in Bekasi.

"Yes, he (the victim) is originally from Lampung. There are no relatives here. He works in billiards," he said.

Previously reported, a woman with the initials Y (19) was found murdered by her lover. The woman from Lampung was lying on her bed in a boarding house located on Jalan Buaran Megah, Klender Village, Duren Sawit, East Jakarta, Monday, July 18.

Meanwhile, the Duren Sawit Police Criminal Investigation Unit is still pursuing the murderer of the woman with the initials Y (19).

Police strongly suspect that the killer was someone close to the victim.

"The perpetrator is still being chased. We have got his identity," said Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the East Jakarta Metro Police, AKBP Ahsanul Muqaffi when confirmed by VOI, Monday, July 18.
