"Cyanide was sprinkled in the satay seasoning, from this we can conclude that this is already designed a few days or weeks beforehand, because the KCN order was approximately three months before the incident", he said.

Therefore, he said, the police concluded that the poisonous satay incident was an act of premeditated murder, which the suspect would be subject to Article 340 of the Criminal Code with the threat of a life sentence, either a death sentence or a maximum of 20 years in prison.

This case was due to the good cooperation between the police, Bantul Police, and Yogyakarta Regional Police as well as from the community in providing testimony, remembering that seeking clues from the perpetrators required information from witnesses one by one to the chicken satay seller.

"One of the keys to disclosure is the satay wrap, which can show where she (the suspect) bought it, from there we look for witnesses whether there was really purchase from this person, finally, we can conclude that NA was the perpetrator of a premeditated murder which resulted in Mr. Bandiman's son being killed", he said.

He explained that the incident began on April 25, around 15.30 WIB in the Gayam Mandala Krida area, Yogyakarta, there was one person An online motorcycle taxi driver was visited by an unknown woman and asked for help in sending two boxes of food, one containing chicken satay, one containing snacks.

"When asking for this to be sent, the person concerned said he did not have an 'online' application, so asked 'offline' to a specific address at Kasihan Subdistrict, Bantul, by saying that the food came from Mr. Hamid in Pakualaman", he said.

After an agreement was made, the food was delivered to the destination, but because those at the destination house felt that they did not order food, they were refused to accept it, and Mr. Bandiman brought it home because the food was refused by the recipient.

"Arriving at his house, some of the food was eaten by his wife and some were eaten by his two children, but what this little boy ate caused him to die", he said.
