KEDIRI - Kediri City Police Chief AKBP Bramastyo Priaji revealed that the students died at the Tartilul Quran (PPTQ) Tartilul Quran (PPTQ) Al Hanafiyyah Islamic Boarding School in Mayan Hamlet, Kranding Village, Mojo District, Kediri Regency, East Java, due to repeated abuse by seniors.

Bramastyo revealed that the temporary motive for the persecution to death was due to a misunderstanding between the students.

"For the temporary motive, it is still suspected that there was a misunderstanding between students. So among them were misunderstandings and repeated persecution arose," said Bramastyo, Tuesday, February 27.

The attorney for the four suspects, Rini Puspitasari, said that the case of the act of persecution was due to a misunderstanding when consulting the victim to pray in congregation.

"According to the perpetrator, the victim was told not to join the congregation in praying. Then he (the victim) advised the answer not to connect, then told the perpetrator. Maybe the perpetrator was a little emotional, kept being beaten," said Rini.

He said that the perpetrators had advised the victim since last Tuesday to attend congregational prayers. "He said that he advised him from Tuesday, he was careful, then Thursday he did not pray anymore, then the perpetrator was upset and emotional," he explained.

Previously, the disclosure of this case began when there was a family report at the Glenmore Police, the jurisdiction of the Banyuwangi Police on Saturday.

Then, the Banyuwangi Police coordinated with the Kediri City Police on the report so that there was no further processing of the crime scene (TKP) and examination of witnesses.

The Kediri City Police arrested four students and named them suspects. The four children of the perpetrators had the initials MN (18 years old, Sidoarjo), MA (18 years old, Nganjuk), AF (16 years old, Denpasar), and AK (17 years old, Surabaya).
