JAKARTA - A decisive and measured action was taken by the police by shooting a motor vehicle theft kingpin (curanmor) in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, for resisting when he was about to be arrested.

"We paralyzed the suspect AI (25) with a shot in the leg because he attacked the officer and tried to escape," said Head of Sub-Directorate 3 of Jatanras, General Criminal Investigation Directorate of the South Kalimantan Police, Grand Commissioner Police (AKBP) Andy Rahmansyah in Banjarmasin, Tuesday.

The chase for the motor theft gang comes from the report of the victim Charlie on Monday (25/1) who lost his motorbike on Kelayan B street, Banjarmasin City.

The Operational Unit of Subdit 3 of Jatanras, Directorate of General Criminal Investigation at the South Kalimantan Regional Police, aka Macan Kalsel, also moved quickly to back up the South Banjarmasin Police.

It was less than 1x24 hours after the report came in, to be precise Tuesday morning, the perpetrator was successfully arrested at Ahmad Yani Street, Km 6 Banjarmasin.

The result of the suspect's confession, a blue Honda Scoopy motorbike with a license plate number DA 6130 ACT was sold to a collector with the initials SP (39) in Batakan Village, Panyipatan District, Tanah Laut Regency, for IDR 2,500,000.

Not wanting to waste time, the South Kalimantan Tiger Team drove to the place of the collector and managed to secure the perpetrator and his evidence.

"So the main suspect is a recidivist of the motor theft case. Hopefully, with his second arrest he will repent and no longer commit a criminal act," said Andy.
