Kabareskrim Concerning Initial Reports Of Sexual Harassment Of Princess Candrawati In The Murder Case Of Brigadier J: Less Likely

JAKARTA - The Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police, Komjen Agus Andrianto, stated that it was unlikely that there was a criminal act of sexual harassment behind the bloody incident that killed Brigadier Yosua Hutabarat or Brigadier J.

At the beginning of this case, it was said that there was an attempt to sexually harass Brigadier J against the wife of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo, Putri Candrawati.

"That's unlikely," Agus told reporters at the National Police Headquarters, Tuesday, August 9.

From a series of preliminary investigations, Agus said that the special team (timsus) formed by the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo believed that premeditated murder was the element behind the crime.

In addition, the Timsus has pocketed strong evidence behind the case and named four suspects, including Inspector General Ferdy Sambo.

"Article 340 of the Criminal Code (there is little chance of harassment, ed)," said Agus.

In the case of the shooting of Brigadier J, there were a total of 4 suspects, namely Bharada E, Brigadier RR, K and Inspector General Ferdy Sambo. Ferdy Sambo allegedly gave orders related to the shooting of Brigadier J.

Inspector General Ferdy Sambo allegedly used a firearm belonging to Brigadier Yosua Hutabarat alias Brigadier J to shoot at the wall several times. The shooting at the wall with Brigadier J's pistol was carried out to make it appear as if a shootout took place, aka a shootout, as reported earlier at the South Jakarta Metro Police.

"That there was no fact of shooting incident as reported, I repeat that there was no fact of shooting incident as reported earlier," said National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo at a press conference handling the case of Brigadier J's murder at the National Police Headquarters, Tuesday, August 9.

The National Police's Bareskrim Team, according to the National Police Chief, found that what actually happened was the shooting of Brigadier J to death.

"What RE (Bharada E) did on the orders of brother FS (Ferdy Sambo," said the National Police Chief.
