BEKASI - A fake policeman named Heri Widiarto (38) was arrested by South Cikarang Sector Police (Polsek) personnel after defrauding a housewife (IRT) in the area.

South Cikarang Police Commissioner Chalid Thayib said Heri was arrested after committing fraud against a woman named Lilis (40) who suffered a material loss of Rp50 million.

"We have secured the perpetrators of this fraud along with evidence of the case," said Chalid in Cikarang, Regency, Bekasi, West Java, Friday, January 27, as reported by Antara.

He explained that the construction of this case began with the victim who was deceived by the perpetrators because an alternative treatment was promised to clean up the negative aura on the victim's body.

"The victim was promised that the perpetrator who claimed to have known a supernatural expert who was able to clean up a negative aura so that the victim's sustenance would run smoothly," he said.

"The perpetrator claimed to be a member of the Cikarang Police. The suspect and the victim then met the victim at a place," he said.

The perpetrator then asked the victim to open the package after three months after the cleaning procession. After three months, it turned out that the contents were only sheets of paper the same size as real money.
