MEDAN - North Sumatra Police Chief Inspector General RZ Panca Putra Simanjuntak said the three firearms used by the perpetrators of the robbery of two gold shops, namely Aulia and Masrul F Gold Shops, at Simpang Limun Market, Medan, were purchased from Aceh.
"The firearms are thought to have been left over from past events that occurred in Aceh," said Panca at the North Sumatra Police Headquarters, Medan, Wednesday, September 15.
He explained that the three firearms (long-barreled, pistol, and revolver) belonged to one of the robbers, namely H. The long-barreled weapon and the gun were lent to perpetrators F, P, and PG to rob the gold shop.
"While the revolver which was in the hands of perpetrator H, was not used to rob the gold shop at Simpang Limun Market," he said, quoted by Antara.
Previously, personnel from the General Crime Directorate of the North Sumatra Police arrested five perpetrators of armed robbery against two gold shops, namely Aulia and Masrul F, at Simpang Limun Market, Jalan SM Raja Medan, Medan Kota District, Medan City.
