However, Basir did not know what Brigadier General Prasetijo's purpose was in the building. Because he only accompanied him to the main lobby elevator. Basir decided to wait on the 11th floor on the grounds that he had many friends there.
After Brigadier General Prasetijo got out and got into the car to leave the TNCC building, Basir had asked about the whereabouts of the paper bags that were previously brought. Apparently, the paper bag was left behind.
