We are still digging up information from other witnesses," said Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Bekasi City Metro Police, Kompol Audy Joize Oroh when confirmed, Tuesday, September 24.

Kompol Audy has not been able to confirm the validity of witness information regarding the sound of gunfire which was allegedly the cause of 7 teenagers jumping into Kali Bekasi due to panic.

"We are still investigating," he said.

Previously, it was reported that the sound of gunfire triggered caused 7 teenagers to jump into the Bekasi River when they were patrolled by the Bekasi City Metro Police Precision Pioneer Team on Saturday, September 21, in the early hours of the morning.

The new fact that the gunshot was heard was based on the testimony of the witness with the initials R, who was at the scene at the time of the incident.

"R said, just once (shots), for the nakut - just scare him so that he can disperse," said Yanti, the older brother of the AD victim (16) to VOI at the Kramat Jati Police Hospital, East Jakarta, Monday, September 23, afternoon.

R is the brother of the victim who died with the initials AD (16). At the time of the incident, R and AD were at the same location.

"(Before running there was a gunshot?) The information was from R, so there was panic dispersal. There was a one-on-one Kali (Kali Bekasi), jumping," he said imitating R's words to him.

Yanti handed over the case to the police. The family hopes that if one of the 7 bodies is the body of AD (16) then it will immediately bring the body to be buried.
