JAKARTA - Head of the Special Criminal Investigation Unit of the West Jakarta Metro Police Criminal Investigation Unit Commissioner of Police Fahmi Fiandri said investigators had pocketed the names of suspects in the case of hoarding drugs for COVID-19 patients.

"Yes, God willing, we will coordinate with the prosecutor first", said Fami when contacted in Jakarta, reported by Antara, Monday, July 26.

Currently, West Jakarta Metro Police investigators want to coordinate with the prosecutor's office regarding the case file before determining the suspect.

However, Fahmi was reluctant to reveal in advance the identity of the potential suspect regarding the alleged hoarding of drugs for the COVID-19 patient.

"Today, we will coordinate with the prosecutor, we will inform you later", he said.

Regarding witnesses, Fahmi said investigators had just examined experts from the Ministry of Health on Monday.

"Today the investigation has just finished because yesterday the person was still in Padang", he said. Previously, the police had examined several expert witnesses, including the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM), criminal experts, and experts from the Ministry of Trade, as well as fact witnesses.

It is known that members of the Special Criminal Unit of the West Jakarta Metro Police Criminal Investigation Unit searched a shophouse unit on Jalan Peta Barat Indah III Block C Number 8, Kalideres, West Jakarta, Monday (12/7).

The police raided the three-story shophouse because it was indicated to be a location for hoarding hundreds or even thousands of boxes containing medicines needed by COVID-19 patients.
