"The perpetrator said 'this can't be taken, bro, if you want to take a distance of 100 meters from here and there is a fine of 50 thousand'. Then the perpetrator and the victim had an argument," said Yulianto, imitating the conversation between the victim and the perpetrator, Wednesday, August 24.
Yulianto continued, the victim did not want a commotion, so he gave the perpetrator 50 thousand rupiah in proceeds.
"Because they didn't want a commotion, they immediately gave 50 thousand to the perpetrator. After that, the victim and the passenger left the scene. The perpetrator had done this 6 times with the same amount." he told VOI, Wednesday, August 24.
The extortion action went viral on social media, the police who knew about the incident immediately investigated and arrested the perpetrator. Furthermore, Katel was taken to the Police for questioning.
According to his confession, continued Yulianto, there is an agreement that must be obeyed by online motorcycle taxis with base motorcycle taxis in the area.
"There has been an agreement between the base motorcycle taxi and the online motorcycle taxi coordinator, but in the agreement if the online motorcycle taxi picks up passengers at the Pondok Ranji station, they are only reprimanded, there is no fine in the amount of money," he continued.
Although he has been arrested, the perpetrator is still a witness and is still being investigated by the police.
"Not yet a suspect. Still a witness," he concluded.
