JAKARTA - From the results of the investigation by the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Tanah Abang Metro Police, the murder suspect named Beni Irawan alias Beni alias Bahrudin (33) is known as a group of thugs in the Tanah Abang Market area.

"The perpetrators and victims (PW alias M) are both thugs there (Tanah Abang). Their job is not clear, as far as I know they are thugs there," said Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of Tanah Abang Police, Kompol Kukuh Islami when confirmed by VOI, Monday, March 26.

Kompol Kukuh emphasized that the suspect and the victim were friends from the same area.

"The results of the perpetrator's statement, he was hurt because he was taken lightly by the victim. They have known him for a long time," he said.

The suspect Beni was arrested by the Central Jakarta Metro Police Satreskrim and the Tanah Abang Metro Police at his hiding place in the Banyuasin area, South Sumatra.

"Until now we are still investigating. The point is they are both Tanah Abang thugs," he said.

The Criminal Investigation Unit of the Central Jakarta Metro Police and the Tanah Abang Metro Police managed to uncover the motive for the murder that occurred on Jalan Jatibaru Raya, precisely under the Tanah Abang Multipurpose Crossing Bridge (JPM), Central Jakarta.

"The suspect's motive for being hurt has been said to be 'you are stupid' by the victim," said Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Central Jakarta Metro Police AKBP Hady Saputra Siagian, Friday, March 24, evening.

The victim also told the perpetrator that he was not afraid of the perpetrator. The perpetrator tried to lighten the atmosphere, but the victim challenged the perpetrator 'what do you want?'.

"Then the perpetrator immediately grabbed the victim's back with a mandate 6 times until it fell on the back. The perpetrator also slit the victim's throat." he said.
