TANGGGAMUS - A couple of traders of basic commodities (nine basic commodities) in Tanggamus Regency, Lampung, were found dead in blood in their house. Both victims were allegedly victims of murder with sharp weapons committed by a close person who knew the situation and condition of the victim's house.

The victim is known as Rohimi (54) and his wife, Suryanti (50). The two were found lifeless at their home in Way Pring Village, Pugung District, on Sunday morning, December 14 at around 01.30 WIB.

The incident was first known by the victim's child who had just returned home. When he entered the house, he found his parents lying in a pool of blood. The child then shouted for help until attracting the attention of the surrounding residents. The incident was immediately reported to the police.

Police officers who arrived at the scene immediately carried out the crime scene (TKP) and collected a number of evidence. From the results of the TKP, the victim Suryanti was found in a prone position with part of her body covered with a blanket, while Rohimi was in a prone position. The floor of the house was covered in blood stains.

The two victims are suspected of having died from sharp weapon wounds in various parts of the body, such as the face, head, neck, and hands. The bodies of the two were then evacuated to the Bhayangkara Hospital, Lampung Police to be autopsied to determine the cause of death.

The victim's sister, Nur Apriyanti (42), said the most severe injuries were seen on the neck and hands. He also emphasized that the two victims had never had any problems with anyone and were well known by the surrounding community.

"As far as we know, we have never had a problem with anyone. My brother is a good person, including to the neighbors. If someone wants to owe, they are usually helped," he said.

Hours after the incident, the police managed to arrest two suspected perpetrators, namely Aman Atmajaya (34) and Ari Jupen Anggara (30). Both are known to be friends of the victim's child and live not far from the victim's house.

The disclosure of this case began with the police's suspicion of Ari Jupen Anggara who was found to have new wounds on his left hand and right calf due to a sharp weapon. After being questioned, he admitted his actions and mentioned Aman Atmajaya's involvement. The police then arrested the second perpetrator and secured two machetes that were allegedly used in the murder.

From the initial examination, the two perpetrators were suspected of intending to commit theft. However, the victim knew the action, which led to the murder. The suspected robbery was strengthened after all the cabinet doors in the victim's house were found to be open.

"The condition of the open cabinet is all, so there is an initial suspicion of a robbery that leads to murder," said Samsuri (42), the victim's neighbor.

He also said that the two victims were found near the dining room and had never been involved in disputes with residents or relatives before the incident.

Currently, the two perpetrators are still undergoing intensive examination at the Tanggamus Police. The police have not concluded the motive for the murder and are still waiting for the results of the autopsy and deepening the information from the perpetrators and witnesses.
