Central Jakarta Metro Resort Police (Polrestro) investigators named two people as suspects at the music festival "Swimming", at Istora, Bung Karno Gelora Complex (GBK), Senayan, Central Jakarta.

"The 'Swimming) festival as of today (Saturday) has named two people as suspects," said Central Jakarta Metro Police Chief Kombes Pol Komarudin, quoted by Antara, Sunday.

Komarudin said the two people named as suspects were HA as the person in charge of the event and DP as the director.

"The two suspects are HA (the person in charge of the event 'Swimming) and DP (director)," he also said.

Komarudin continued, with the presence of two suspects, the number could then increase because the investigation process is still ongoing.

"We are still conducting an investigation, maybe later it can still increase, while the two suspects have been named," he said again.

Previously, according to Komarudin, the organizing committee was considered negligent in organizing the event, so that a number of people were injured.

"Meanwhile, the negligence caused other people to be injured," he also said.

In this case, the person in charge of the music festival is subject to Article 360 paragraph (2) of the Criminal Code (KUHP) concerning negligence that causes severe injury, then Article 93 of Law Number 6 of 2018 concerning Health Quarantine.

Polda Metro Jaya has canceled the playing concert at Istora Senayan Jakarta on Sunday (30/10), for the safety of the audience.

"We have stopped the activity because we consider the safety of the audience's souls. We don't want any casualties to fall," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Pol Endra Zulpan when confirmed in Jakarta, Monday (31/10).

Initially, the concert was planned to last for three days, namely 28-30 October 2022, but the number of visitors who exploded on the second day made the police decide to cancel the concert on the third day.

Zulpan said police officers found allegations of ticket sales practices that exceeded the capacity of the building where the concert took place.
