TANJUNGPINANG - Tanjungpinang Police Chief, Riau Islands Police (Kepri), Kombes Heribertus Ompusung, said that the robbery case that had gone viral on social media in the last few days turned out to be a hoax. "We make sure that there has never been any acts of robbery or violent theft, as has been viral on social media recently," Heribertus said in Tanjungpinang, as reported by Antara, Thursday, January 12. The chronology of the incident began when a young man named Rio Anwar admitted that he was robbed on his way home from a supermarket on Jalan Ganet, East Tanjungpinang District, after the Maghrib prayer, last Wednesday, December 4. The victim then made a report of the incident to the East Tanjungpinang Police. To the police, the victim told the time of the incident that he was approached by two people using a Yamaha King motorcycle without a police license plate. The two people, according to the victim's confession, suddenly swung a machete at the bag he was carrying until it broke and the perpetrator took him away. "For this incident, the victim suffered a loss of Rp. 7.2 million. The money was stored in the bag that the two perpetrators had taken away," he said. After the incident, the East Tanjungpinang Police immediately reconstructed the crime scene (TKP) and examined the reporter, including his parents. From the results of the examination, the complainant's parents said that their son Rio Anwar in his daily life often had mental disorders or hallucinations. In addition, after being examined, it turned out that the reporter also did not go to the supermarket according to the chronology of the reporter when making a complaint report regarding the occurrence of a robbery on Jalan Ganet to the police station. "The reporter also admitted that what had been reported was not true or a hoax," said the Tanjungpinang Police Chief. However, he continued, the police will still summon and examine the reporter Rio Anwar for further questioning.
