Nuredy said that one of Ferdian's stolen items in the form of a laptop (Jijing computer) was pawned by the suspect in the Koja area, North Jakarta, worth Rp. 2 million. "Yesterday we managed to confiscate the laptop. Currently the laptop is here and later we will call the victim (Ferdian) to confirm the condition of the laptop, both physically and in its contents," he said. Meanwhile, Ferdian's other items, namely a set of "digital video recorder" (DVR) CCTV were dumped in Kali Winongo Yogyakarta, while one file bundle, an external hard disk, KPK ID Card, and Ferdian's Xiaomi mobile phone were dumped in one of the rivers in Central Java. Nuredy explained that the two suspects with the initials SIP (31) from Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi, and JN (32) from Makassar, South Sulawesi, departed from Jakarta to Yogyakarta on December 20, 2022. On their way, they had stayed at the residence of one of his family in Tegal, Central Java, for three days. Furthermore, on December 23, 2022, the two recidivists continued their journey to Yogyakarta, but when they arrived in Gombong, Kebumen, Central Java, they tried to commit a criminal act of theft by weighting in one of the houses. "However, it failed because there were house owners who were still at the residence," said Nuredy.
