BALIKPAPAN - After being on the run and on the wanted list (DPO) for almost 3 months, an old man who sexually abused a minor was finally arrested in Penajam Paser Utara Regency, East Kalimantan.

The 60-year-old grandfather with the initials P hid in a remote village after finding out he was being targeted by the police.
