JAKARTA - West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi (KDM) decided to hand over the Rp250 million worth of the contest prize related to the arrest of Taufik Hidayat, the suspect in the kidnapping and persecution case against the woman with the initials YTR, to the victim's family as a future resource.

"Because the one who made the arrest was the West Java Police, then the winner of the sayembaranya is the West Java Police. And the Police Chief called me and asked me to hand it over to the victim's family for his future," said Dedi at a press conference at the West Java Police Headquarters, Bandung, quoted by Antara, Saturday, June 27.

Dedi said the tender he announced also had a psychological effect on the suspect so that he kept moving from place to place before he was finally arrested by the police at a house in the Griya Pesona Housing, Ciparay, Bandung Regency.

"This competition has a psychological effect on the suspect. That is, he goes anywhere, feels that many people are watching. So he is confused. Because he is confused, he came back to Bandung," he said.

In addition, Dedi ensured that the West Java Provincial Government would bear all the costs of treatment for the victims until they fully recovered.

He said based on provisional calculations, the cost of treating the victims in the next two weeks is estimated to reach around Rp1 billion and has been prepared by the provincial government.

"The family will also stop working because they have to focus on taking care of the victim. Then from there, the West Java Provincial Government has decided that all health services will be guaranteed to the victim until he recovers," said Dedi.

He added that the victim's family no longer needed to raise donations to finance treatment, nor daily needs while accompanying the victim during treatment.

"Those who donate are welcome to help the family's life and the future of the victim. For his family, since I visited until today, we have made sure to stop working, continue to care for, and ensure his life," he said.
