JAKARTA - A young man was targeted by a robbery on Jalan Pulobuaran, Pulogadung Industrial Estate, Cakung District, East Jakarta on Monday night, April 16. According to information received, the victim at the time of the incident was alone with his girlfriend, in a quiet and minimal light.

As a result of the robbery, the victim named Achmad Adrian Firmansyah (21) suffered sharp stab wounds to his fingers and stomach.

The victims were hacked by the perpetrators because they tried to keep their girlfriend's cellphone which was being confiscated by the perpetrators.

The victim's body was covered in blood and lay down because of a sharp weapon by the perpetrator. After seeing the victim not moving, the perpetrators fled while carrying the stolen cellphone.

Meanwhile, the victim's girlfriend screamed hysterically when she saw her lover lying on the road covered in blood. He shouted for help from residents around the scene.

Luckily, security officers at one of the factories heard the victim's girlfriend screaming and tried to help her by taking her to Pondok Kopi Islamic Hospital, Duren Sawit, East Jakarta. The victim was critical of the stab wound he suffered.

From Maulana's statement, one of the local residents, he learned that a couple was dating at the scene and was helped to the hospital using a box car.

"Yes, I'm alone. Here I'm dating. Then four other people came with two motorbikes. He (the victim) was immediately stabbed with his hand until he was bleeding and lying down," he told reporters at the location, Tuesday, April 16.

Then the victim's girlfriend ran for help from local residents.

"Then he ran for help, the box driver was immediately helped to be taken to the hospital," he said.

Maulana said the perpetrators managed to seize the victim's cellphone. Meanwhile, the victim's motorbike was secured by security.

"The victim's cell phone was taken by 4 people. Here it is quiet and vulnerable, if at midnight there are no people, don't come here because it's vulnerable," he appealed.

The case is handled by the Cakung Police Headquarters.
