JAKARTA - The police have decided to revoke the suspect's status from a health worker with the initials EO, who went viral for injecting empty vaccines. The revocation was because the victim decided to resolve the issue peacefully.

"He has been revoked (suspect status)," said North Jakarta Metro Police Chief Kombes Guruh Arif Darmawan to VOI, Wednesday, August 11.

With the revocation of this status, EO can breathe a sigh of relief. He can meet his beloved family.

In addition, the revocation of the suspect status from him was also the result of mediation facilitated by the police. Until finally, the parents of the child who received the blank vaccine withdrew the report and agreed to make peace.

"During mediation and peace agreement. As of today, his status is revoked as a suspect," said Guruh.

Previously, it was reported that the police had named a health worker with the initials EO as a suspect in the case of injecting empty vaccines at a school in the Pluit area, North Jakarta.

He became a suspect because he had neglected to carry out his duties. Although, it was reasonable to have vaccinated 599 people.

Thus, with the stipulation as a suspect, EO is suspected under Article 14 of Law Number 4 of 1984 concerning Outbreaks of Infectious Diseases.
