BANJARMASIN - A woman with the initials MP (40) was arrested by the police after stealing a gold ring at a gold shop in Central Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan. This woman initially pretended to want to buy a gold ring, but the goods belonging to the shop were exchanged for the imitation ring that was brought.

The women's actions took place at the Sinar Delima shop in Sudi Mampir Market, Central Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan. The perpetrator initially pretended to be buying a gold ring.

"Then when the perpetrator tried a 99 gold ring weighing 10 grams and while the victim was busy making a purchase receipt, the perpetrator quickly replaced the original gold ring with an imitation ring that had been prepared by the perpetrator in the bag", said Crime and violence at the Directorate General of Criminal Investigation of the South Kalimantan Police, Wednesday, July 28.

The perpetrator then canceled the ring purchase transaction. The perpetrator then handed the imitation ring to the victim and the perpetrator fled from the victim's shop.

The victim's suspicion arose because the ring that was handed over by the perpetrator was not as heavy as the original ring. The perpetrator was then chased into the market and detained by residents.

The South Kalimantan Macan Team who passed the scene took the perpetrator to the police station. To the police, the perpetrator admitted that he had committed several frauds by exchanging gold rings.
