JAKARTA - Dandim 0501/JP BS Colonel Czi Alfius Navirinda Krisdinanto denied that a member of the Division-3 Kostrad Representative with the initials BDA was stabbed by an unknown person on Jalan Raya Kodam, Sumur Batu, Kemayoran, Central Jakarta.

Alfius revealed that the member of the 3rd Platoon 3 Battalion 755 Representative of the 3rd Kostrad Division was depressed and tried to hurt himself.

"The results of the investigation are not a case of stabbing. He injured himself, was depressed because he had a long-standing illness," said Alfius when confirmed in Jakarta, Antara, Sunday, February 20.

Alfius explained that BDA had kidney and liver disease that he had suffered for years, but never recovered. BDA is a patient at the Gatot Subroto Army Hospital. Dandim is suspected of having depression due to his illness.

"He's been sick for a long time, hasn't healed for years. He was treated at the RSPAD, just because people didn't understand, the tofu was stabbed, so it was crowded," said Alfius.

Dandim ensured that there were no criminal acts against BDA so that further investigations were not carried out.
