PAPUA - Director of the General Criminal Investigation of the Papua Police, Kombes Faizal Rahmadani, said that his party was still exploring the funds to buy 615 bullets which were secured in Elelim, Yalimo Regency.

According to AM, an ASN from Nduga Regency, the ammunition was purchased for Rp. 200 thousand per item for a total of Rp. 123 million. "It is not yet known where the funds to buy ammunition came from," he said in Jayapura, Antara, Friday, July 1.

Faizal said that AM was arrested on Wednesday night in Elelim when patrolling members suspected him of being involved, then raided him until they found hundreds of rounds of ammunition. Apart from ammunition, one handgun was also found.

AM is one of the launchers of the armed criminal group (KKB) Nduga led by Egianus Kogoya who is tasked with finding ammunition and firearms.

The KKB, he continued, were actively looking for ammunition because their supplies were running low due to firefights with security forces and shooting civilians.

Therefore, his party asked the members on duty at the posts to always be alert to them in order to avoid casualties and loss of weapons and ammunition.

Currently, said Faizal, AM who is now in Wamena continues to be questioned to reveal his network.

"It is not known where the ammunition was purchased from? Is it in Jayapura or from other areas in Papua?" said Kombes Pol. Faizal.
