The East Jakarta Metro Police Satreskrim continues to pursue fugitives from the perpetrators of the beating of members of the East Jakarta Satwil Polantas. The identity of the perpetrator is known to the police.

"Members are still pursuing the perpetrators who are still at large. They are being chased by 4 people," said East Jakarta Metro Police Criminal Investigation Unit Head AKBP Ahsanul Muqaffi when confirmed by VOI, Thursday, December 29.

Previously, the ranks of the East Jakarta Metro Police Satreskrim and Jatanras Polda Metro Jaya had pursued the perpetrators of the gangers of Polantas members. Two of the perpetrators were arrested at his home.

"Yes, that's right, two people were arrested yesterday. Both have the initials F and ADZ. It's better to surrender." he said.

Previously, it was reported that members of the Traffic Police (Polantas) Brigadier T were victims of a beating on Jalan Otista Raya, Jatinegara, East Jakarta, last Sunday, December 25. The victim was beaten by five perpetrators who were influenced by alcohol.

Head of the East Jakarta Metro Police Traffic Unit, AKBP Edy Surasa, said the perpetrators were minors who consumed alcohol.

"Children are drunk, the information from investigators is like that," said AKBP Edy, Wednesday, December 28.

According to AKBP Edy, currently officers in the field are still pursuing the alleged perpetrators. The perpetrators of the beatings are local residents. As a result, until now Brigadier T has not been able to serve even though he was beaten with his bare hands.

"Now I'm at his son's house, I told him to rest first," he said.

The beating began when the victim asked to be given a road to the perpetrators who were in the middle of the road on Jalan Otista Raya towards Kampung Melayu. But instead of giving way, the perpetrator ganged up on him.
