"I hope you don't have to worry, it's true that the explosion was not a bomb and terror. The current situation at the TKP is normal again, the Inafis and laboratory identification processes have been completed and there are no prominent incidents in the Sukoharjo area, including the surrounding community, have carried out activities as usual," he explained.
