MATARAM - The Mataram City Police Team, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) revealed the role of uploading an exciting photo of a woman with the initials M (39) from West Lombok Regency, on Facebook.

Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Mataram Police, Kompol Kadek Adi Budi Astawa, said that the uploader of the exciting photo had the initials S (29), from Narmada, West Lombok Regency.

"So, it was this perpetrator who uploaded it through a fake account with the name 'Cinta Suci'. After we investigated, the account was connected to the perpetrator's phone number," said Kadek Adi, quoted by Antara, Thursday, June 2.

With this evidence, the police arrested S at his home. Cell phones, fake accounts of the perpetrators along with proof of uploading exciting photos on Facebook social media were also confiscated.

This case was revealed, explained Kadek Adi, starting from the victim's report M. In the report, M admitted that he had been a victim of harassment due to the upload from the "Cinta Suci" account.

"We also carried out an investigation by asking for information from linguists and ITE (Electronic Information and Transaction) experts," he said.

Therefore, from the results of the case title, Kadek Adi ensured that S's actions had fulfilled the criminal elements as stipulated in Article 27 paragraph 1 Juncto Article 45 paragraph 1 of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 19/2016 concerning Amendments to Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11/2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions (ITE).

"In accordance with the criminal provisions stipulated in Article 45 paragraph 1, the suspect in this case is threatened with a maximum imprisonment of 6 years and a fine of Rp. 1 billion," he said.

From the results of the examination of S, who is now a suspect, the police succeeded in revealing the motive for the perpetrator to upload an exciting photo of the victim.

To the police, S admitted that he had an affair with the victim. However, S's relationship with M only lasted for two months.

"Because the victim did not accept the decision, the perpetrator transmitted the exciting photo from the video call with the victim while still dating through the fake account, 'Cinta Suci'," said Kadek Adi.
