All the evidence was stored in a Honda Jazz car with plate B 1810 RFD. The car was also confiscated and taken to the Medan Satria Police Headquarters for further investigation, "explained Kompol Agus.

Meanwhile, according to Dodi Sutriadi (57), the victim's father, the persecution and violence experienced by his family were due to debt problems. AJ, said Dodi, borrowed money from the victim. Because he felt close, Tom gave a loan of Rp. 975 million to AJ since the last Idul Fitri 2021.

"The borrowed money is said to be 6 months due. AJ has a side business of buying and selling land. AJ often plays at home, then my son also likes to give work to AJ," said Dodi to reporters.

"Well, my son is investing, where the total is around Rp. 975 million for the investment capital," said Dodi.

However, it is known that the Rp975 million was not used as investment capital by AJ, but was wasted through an extravagant way of life.

"So from there, it turns out that if the information is received from the police, the money is not bought or not traded for land but is used for fun with him and his friends," he said.
