JAKARTA - The Palangka Raya Police admit that there are no reports of child kidnapping cases such as issues that are busy developing in the community today.

Head of Samapta Polresta Palangka Raya AKP Gatoot Sisworo, said that from January to February 2023, he had never received a report related to the kidnapping case.

"As far as I know, nil (no), sir. For the case data, you can contact the Palangka Raya Police Criminal Investigation Unit (Satreskrim)," said Gatoot Sisworo, Monday, February 6, as reported by Antara.

To anticipate the incident, members of the Palangka Raya Police Sat Samapta intensified patrols to a number of places that were considered vulnerable in this regard.

Patrols using two-wheeled vehicles carried out by Sat Samapta members visited a number of Taman Kanak-Kanak (TK) schools, Elementary Schools (SD) and Junior High Schools (SMP) in the city.

"We give directions to teachers and school guards to be more vigilant in guarding their students, not to become victims of kidnapping by unknown people," he said.

The former Head of Narcotics at the Palangka Raya Police also appealed to all people in the local area not to panic about child kidnapping issues that have developed so far.

Even when someone receives information via WhatsApp group and so on, it would be better if information was sought that the incident was not in the jurisdiction of the Palangka Raya Police.

"Usually parents panic with issues that develop from outside to our area. My advice is to increase vigilance so that these problems do not occur in our area, but still don't panic," said the police officer with the rank of three beams.
