JAKARTA - The news of the arrest of MR, a sejoli burner in Penjaringan, North Jakarta, was greeted with relief from the family and residents around the scene. Because according to one of the residents around the scene of the incident, MR is the most feared figure in his area, and because of his bad behavior. You could say the thugs. Yes, local residents think MR is a thug. Kalijodo thugs.

Nur, the victim's neighbor who said he was happy and relieved after hearing the news that MR had been arrested by the police. Although not part of his family, Nur admitted that he was annoyed and hoped that MR would be punished severely.

"If we are the heavyest. If we can be like in Arabic, in Rajang. Yes in Rajang. The term if we can be sentenced to death. It is better if the law is dead," said Nur to VOI on Jalan Jelambar Ilir, Jelambar Baru, West Jakarta, Friday, January 6.

Nur also admitted that he hated the behavior of a man who was known by residents as a thug. The reason is, he is a person who is light to hands, both towards his son and his ex-wife. "We have seen that Dewi (the victim was burned) was slapped in public by Iwan ( MR's nickname). We want to help him too. He is a thug. The driver is same as gambling," he said. MR and DW have indeed been husband and wife (couple), but about three months ago they divorced. Nur said she was happy to hear the news that MR and DW were declared separated by the court. "But when asked, who filed for divorce first, he was reluctant to call it. He only made sure that if DW and MR separated since October 2022. Who is strong (hold-ed), the wife only became samsak (bulge-ed)," he concluded.

The same thing as Bowo, also the victim's neighbor. Bowo made sure MR was a thug. He has nothing to do while married to the victim. "His wife is a laborer, the same as washing rubs. If the Iwan (MR) is a thug. He doesn't work," he said. North Jakarta Metro Police Chief, Kombes Wibowo admitted that he was still exploring the work of the perpetrator as a thug. We explore first, we don't want to assume first. We focus on the material," he concluded.

A couple in Penjaringan, North Jakarta, were burned alive while walking on Jelambar Bridge. The victim died as a result of being burned, namely a man with the initials S, as DW's new girlfriend. DW just divorced MR three months ago.

Police officers said that MR's motive burned DW and his girlfriend, out of anger and jealousy.
