JAKARTA - The National Police have also directly intervened in investigating the radiocative waste found in Batan Indah Housing, Serpong, South Tangerang. At least seven witnesses have been questioned regarding this case.
"We have asked for information about 7 (witnesses) out of 12 who we invited to provide information," said Karo Penmas DivHumas Polri Brigadier General Argo Yuwono in Tangerang, Friday, February 21.
However, Argo did not explain in detail about the police investigation. The police also have not announced the results of the observations of the radioactive samples being investigated by the Indonesian National Police's Puslabfor.
Not to mention, the investigation carried out by the police is still at the initial stage of examination by digging up information from witnesses. "Of course we are still waiting for the results. We are still asking for information," said Argo.
The origin of the radioactive waste in the Batan Indah housing estate has yet to be revealed. The Nuclear Energy Supervisory Agency (BAPETEN) also wants to know immediately who deliberately dumped the waste around residential areas.
"The investigation process has begun by Bareskrim. We are also in the process of checking the database," said Abdul Qohhar, Public Relations of the Nuclear Energy Supervisory Agency (BAPETEN), when contacted by VOI.
Regarding the radioactive waste investigation process, Bapetan is conducting a cross-check through database inspection. This is because the use of Cs-137 or Cesium 137 substances is commonly used in industrial activities and must have a permit first.
"To investigate the findings, it will be led by friends of the National Police. Bapeten and Batan are in a backup position," said Qohhar.
As previously reported, the Police deployed a Detachment E Gegana team to investigate radioactive substances found in an empty land in a residential area. Later, the Forensic Laboratory Center (Puslabfor) will also help uncover these findings.
The Nuclear Energy Supervisory Agency (Bapeten) together with the National Nuclear Energy Agency (Batan) continue to clean up the remaining radioactive waste at Batan Indah Housing, Serpong, South Tangerang (Tangsel). Batan also said that the level of radiation exposure at the location had also started to decrease significantly.
