The East Java Regional Police (East Java Regional Police) stated that based on the analysis and evaluation (anev) of the 2022 performance, it was stated that the handling of the Kanjuruhan case and robbery at the Blitar Mayor's official residence had not been completed.

East Java Police Chief Inspector General Toni Harmanto in his written statement in Surabaya, admitted that there were two cases that were classified as prominent among a number of other cases that occurred throughout 2022.

"Especially for the Kanjuruhan case, the investigation is still ongoing," said Police Chief Inspector General Toni Harmanto, quoted from Antara, Saturday, December 31.

In handling the Kanjuruhan case that killed 135 supporters at the end of the Liga 1 football match between the hosts Arema FC and Persebaya in Malang on October 1, East Java Police investigators have named six suspects.

Each is the President Director of PT Liga Indonesia Baru (Managing Director of PT LIB) Akhmad Hadian Lukita, Chairman of the Organizing Committee (Panpel) Abdul Haris Match, Security Officer Suko Sutrisno, Head of Operational Section of Malang Resort Police (Polres) Police Commissioner Wahyu Setyo, Company Commander III Brigadier Car (Brimob) East Java Police Adjunct Police Commissioner (AKP) Hasdarmawan, and Head of Malang Police Samapta Unit AKP Bambang Sidik Achmadi.

The case files for the six suspects have been transferred to the East Java High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati). However, only five suspects have their case files declared complete or P-21 and have been transferred to the second stage.

There is only one case left whose files are declared incomplete or P-19. This file was returned to the East Java Regional Police investigators to be completed, namely on behalf of the suspect, the President Director of PT LIB Akhmad Hadian Lukita, who was finally released on December 21 because his detention period had expired.

Kapolda Inspector General Pol. Toni confirmed that the investigation into the Kanjuruhan case with the suspect, President Director of PT LIB Akhmad Hadian Lukita, had not yet been stopped.

"The investigation did not stop. In the sense that it was still returned to us to be completed. So, of course, we will also confirm the investigation based on the explanations submitted by the prosecutor so that it can be sent back to the prosecutor's office," he said.

In addition, another prominent case in 2022 that has not been resolved is the robbery case at the Blitar Mayor's official residence on December 12.

Inspector General Toni confirmed that the East Java Regional Police team from the beginning handled the investigation of this case until now had not returned because they were pursuing a gang of fugitive perpetrators.

According to him, the profiling of the perpetrators has been pocketed. When caught, the motive for the robbery will be revealed.

"We ask for prayers. Hopefully we will be caught tonight, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow so that we can reveal the motive," said Kapolda Toni.
