Releases case of 5 Semarang PIP cadets suspected of molestation (ANTARA)

SEMARANG - Semarang Polrestabes managed to uncover the mistreatment of cadets at the Marine Science Polytechnic (PIP) Semarang. One of the cadets even died as a result of the beating.

The Head of Semarang Polrestabes Kombes Irwan Anwar said the perpetrators of the beating initially "invited" the victim to gather outside the campus area. The number of victims of beatings reached 15 people, while the seniors (perpetrators of the persecution) were 5 people.

"15 cadets were gathered by seniors at Mess Indo Raya in the Genuk Krajan area, the reason is that they will be trained," said Irwan Anwar in Semarang, Antara, Friday, September 10.

During the training, the juniors were hit in the stomach by five seniors. This coaching activity is referred to as a tradition and has often been carried out.

As a result of the incident, the Semarang PIP cadet, ZMF, was killed. The victim was rushed to the hospital. The other 14 cadets, he said, are currently in good health.

The five final-level cadets who were named as suspects in the persecution that killed Zidan were Caecar Rido, Aris Riyanto, Andre Arsprilla Arief, Albert Jonathan Ompu Sungu, and Budi Dharmawan.

The suspects, continued Irwan, have actually graduated from education and are just waiting for graduation. For their actions, the suspects were charged with Article 170 of the Criminal Code regarding beatings that killed other people.
