JAKARTA The Gambir Metro Police has re-developed a drug case involving a suspect named Rafi alias RR, who claims to be the shaman and owner of the Narakumbara_21 padepokan in the Cakung area, East Jakarta. The place is suspected of being a drugbed with a camouflage as a spiritual pavilion.

The raid was carried out on Jalan Kampung Rawa Badung, RT 08/07, Jatinegara Village, Cakung District, East Jakarta. From that location, the police confiscated a number of evidences in the form of methamphetamine documents, seven small clips containing 1.67 grams of methamphetamine, a package of synthetic tobacco weighing 0.71 grams, plastic clips used for methamphetamine, and other evidence.

Police Develop Case

Gambir Metro Police Chief, Kompol Rezeki R. Respati, stated that his party is still developing this case to uncover the drug network behind the padepokan.

"The suspect with the initials RR has the stage name Ki Bule Pamungkas. We are still developing the case," said Kompol Rezeki R. Respati when confirmed on Thursday, March 13.

In addition to claiming to be a shaman, Rafi alias Ki Bule Pamungkas is known to market objects that are claimed to have mystical powers such as immune knowledge through his personal Instagram account. The padepokan operates in a rented house in the Cakung area.

Alleged Involvement Of Gangstery Groups

Several youths who were patients of Rafi are thought to have come from gangster groups who are often involved in brawls. However, until now, the police have not found any evidence that leads to direct involvement with the group.

"Until now, we have not been found in that direction, but we will definitely develop it," explained Kompol Rezeki.

The police have not provided an official statement regarding whether the bullying practice carried out by Rafi alias Ki Bule Pamungkas is really fake or not. However, the main focus of the investigation is on the drug abuse case that took place in the pavilion.

"We haven't proven it yet, because we focus on drug abuse," he added.

During the raid operation, the police managed to arrest Rafi Ramadhan alias RR (24) and his subordinate, Taufik Hidayat alias TH (21). In addition, the police are still hunting for a supplier of methamphetamine known as Bang Rembo, who is strongly suspected of supplying the illicit goods to Rafi and Taufik.

This case is still being developed by the police to uncover a wider drug network.
