RIAU - Riau Police has investigated a female police officer or policewoman with the initials Brigadier IR who is suspected of beating a woman who is her brother's lover named Riri. The policewoman was examined along with five other witnesses.

The Head of Public Relations of the Riau Police, Kombes Pol Sunarto, said that apart from the Brigadier IR, the neighbor of the victim who knew about the incident was also questioned.

"Six witnesses have been examined. It is planned that tomorrow investigators will conduct a case title to determine the continuation of this case," said Sunarto in Pekanbaru, Riau, as quoted from Antara, Sunday, September 25.

Sunarto revealed that the Brigadier IR had previously been questioned by investigators from the Propam Division of the Riau Police on Friday, September 23. She was even immediately picked up by the Propam team and taken to the Riau Police.

"The leadership is paying attention to this case. Handling steps are taken quickly. Currently, the legal process is underway. If proven, the leadership will not hesitate to take firm action according to the rules," he said.

Brigadier IR who served in the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) of Riau Province was reported to the Riau Police after allegedly holding and molesting a woman named Riri.

Brigadier IR did it because she did not approve of Riri's love affair with her brother which had existed for three years.

The persecution started when IR and her mother suddenly came to Riri's rented house while saying unpleasant words on Wednesday, September 21, at around 20.00 WIB. The two then locked and beat Riri in the room blindly.

Not until there, the victim was then taken to the parking lot of the Pekanbaru BNNP Office by an IR colleague and again beaten in the car.

Even though her partner had stopped her, IR still continued to shower Riri with punches. Due to the abuse, Riri suffered bruises at several points on her body and swelling on her head.
