"The evidence that was secured in the form of 9 pieces of packaged cooking oil of the Gulent brand containing 12 plastic bottles. Each bottle has a net of 900 grams so that the number that is secured is 97.2 liters", said Commissioner Johanson.
From the investigation, it is known that the producer of packaged cooking oil of the Gulent brand is located in the North Jakarta area.
"Currently the location of the factory is still being investigated. The Ditreskrimsus is also still examining several witnesses and will make clarifications to the brand owner. Hopefully, it will be clear and can be fully disclosed soon", said Commissioner Johanson.
Meanwhile, the Head of Public Relations of the Central Java Police, Commissioner M Iqbal Alqudusy, stated that currently there are many new brands of cooking oil that were not circulating in the field.
"This fact was revealed by the National Police Chief in Jakarta based on the results of monitoring by the National Police and the Ministry of Industry. There is a mode of repacking or repackaging without a permit, then it is made as if it were premium cooking oil. Even though it contains bulk cooking oil", said Iqbal.
Therefore, the Central Java Police are aware of the presence of these modes in the field and are ready to take firm action against the perpetrators of repacking (repackaging) bulk cooking oil without a permit, as well as other forms of violations related to cooking oil.
He also asked the community for cooperation to report to the police or related agencies if they found any abuse of bulk cooking oil.
"Please report any irregularities. We really appreciate the participation and participation of the community", he concluded.
