JAKARTA - The case of the murder of a woman found in a sack in the Cakung area, East Jakarta, has finally been revealed. It turned out that the perpetrator was the victim's lover with the initials AS. The victim was found to be 4 months pregnant.

"We succeeded in revealing that the perpetrators of this murder were AS relatives or the victim's own girlfriend", said the Head of Public Relations of the Metro Jaya Police, Kombes Yusri Yunus, to reporters on Thursday, August 12.

From the results of the examination, the motive behind the murder was because the suspect was worried that the victim was four months pregnant. In fact, the suspect already has a future wife.

"The initial motive was that the suspect already had a future woman or wife. But the victim admitted that she was 4 months pregnant, so there was an intention to kill the victim. Because the suspect also had an intention to marry someone else", continued Yusri.

Yusri emphasized that it was for this reason that the suspect killed his lover. In fact, put the victim's body into sacks and cardboard to remove traces.

For his actions, the suspect AS was charged with Article 340 of the Criminal Code regarding premeditated murder. Thus, the maximum penalty is the death penalty.

M, a woman born in Pemalang, Central Java 17 years ago, was found dead wrapped in a cardboard box on Tuesday, August 10 on the edge of Jalan Raya Bekasi Street, Cakung, East Jakarta. M works as a household assistant (ART) in Bekasi.
