BOGOR – Although the report on the destruction of the Bojong Koneng Village office was withdrawn, the police continued to investigate. Because, the incident is considered to have a criminal element in it.

The destruction of the Bojong Koneng Village office was carried out by a number of people. It is strongly suspected that the incident was related to a land dispute between residents of Bojong Koneng, including activist Rocky Gerung, and PT Sentul City Tbk.

Bogor Police Chief AKBP Harun said that this step was still being carried out because his party found a criminal element and this case was not a complaint offense or did not need reporting.

"Because there was an incident of vandalism, of course this is a crime, if this is a crime there is a report here," explained AKBP Harun to reporters at the Bogor Resort Police, Monday, September 4.

After the incident of vandalizing the Bojong Koneng Village office, the police have examined a number of witnesses for questioning related to this case, as well as conducting a crime scene investigation (TKP).

Previously, a number of residents of Bojong Koneng Village tried to ask for protection from village officials to stop the forced evictions carried out by PT Sentul City Tbk.

However, the local village officials ran away when asked for help. This is suspected to have ignited the emotions of the residents which led to the destruction of a number of village government office facilities.

The revocation of the report on the destruction of the Bojong Koneng Village office was carried out by the Village Head, Rusdi Anwar. Rusdi took this step after mediation efforts with the local community.

From the results of mediation, both parties agreed to settle the case of destruction that occurred on Saturday, October 2, amicably.
