JAKARTA - Business affairs, especially debts and receivables, are one of the motives for criminal acts. One example is the shooting case committed by the son of the Regent of Majalengka Karna Sobahi, Irfan Nur Alam.
Irfan shot Panji Pamungkasandi, who at that time was collecting a debt for the construction of a Public Fuel Filling Station (SPBU) worth Rp. 500 million.
The shooting incident began when Panji communicated with Irfan regarding the settlement of a project that had been going on since April 2019. From this communication it was agreed to meet at Ruko Hana Sakura, Cigasong District, Majalengka Regency, West Java.
Sunday, November 10, evening, the two met. The debt is paid. It's just that, for no apparent reason Irfan fired a gun at Panji. Panji's left hand was injured.
Realizing that his hand was injured, Panji rushed to the hospital for treatment. After that, he reported the police to settle the case.
Based on that report, the police started an investigation. Three days later, Irfan was named a suspect. He was suspected of Article 170 of the Criminal Code concerning persecution and emergency law No. 12 of 1951 concerning the use of firearms.
Even though he was a suspect, Irfan was not arrested. The reason was that Irfan would be over-examined according to schedule on Friday, November 15.
"Today we examine (Irfan). (Regarding detention) The investigators will decide," said Chief of Majalengka Police, AKBP Mariyono to VOI, Friday, November 14.
Meanwhile, the gun used by Irfan has been confiscated as evidence. From the results of the examination, it was found that the gun contained only rubber bullets when it was used to shoot Panji. However, the police are still investigating the licensing of these firearms.
"Yes, that's right, the weapon contains rubber bullets, not live bullets," said Martono.
The shooting case was also highlighted by the Chairman of Commission III of the DPR-RI Herman Herry. This PDI-P politician asked the police to thoroughly investigate the shooting case, and resolve this as soon as possible so as not to drag on in order to avoid negative opinion in society.
"I appeal to the West Java Regional Police Chief (Inspector General Rudy Sufahriadi) to instruct his staff in law enforcement to be objective and professional, especially in handling shooting cases and attracting public attention," said Herman, Thursday, November 13.
"Immediately take professional steps to investigate, do not verbose so that the parties suspect that the police are not professional," added Herman.
