SUKOHARJO - The Sukoharjo Police have arrested and detained a man with the initials WD (45), a resident of Transang Village, Gatak District, Sukoharjo Regency, Central Java, for distributing nude photos of a woman.

"We arrested the WD perpetrators and are currently undergoing examination for legal proceedings at the Sukoharjo Police Headquarters", said Sukoharjo Police Chief AKBP Wahyu Nugroho Setyawan quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, January 10.

WD was arrested for distributing nude photos of a woman. The photo was distributed because the perpetrator admitted that he did not want his relationship with the victim to end.

The perpetrator deliberately distributed pornographic photos of the victim to the victim's husband and friends, between December 2022 and January 2023.

After receiving the report, the Sukoharjo Police immediately investigated the perpetrators of WD. The police then secured the perpetrator admitting his actions had spread the naked photo of a woman.

In fact, it turns out that the WD perpetrator also admitted to being a fake TNI member. He admits to being a member of the TNI to trick women into becoming his lovers.

"WD claimed to be a TNI. However, WD's status was revealed after the victim checked his membership status at Kodim 0726/Sukoharjo. The results revealed that WD was not a member of the TNI", said Wahyu Nugroho.

The WD perpetrator was then secured by TNI members for questioning. He was also confronted there by the victim, until finally admitting what he had done so far, pretending to be a member of the TNI to deceive the victim.

In addition, the police also secured several pieces of evidence in the form of a Redmi brand cellphone, a Huawei brand cellphone, and a Samsung M 11 cellphone unit.

For his actions, WD was charged with Article 29 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 44 of 2008 concerning Pornography and/or Article 45 paragraph 1 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions, with a maximum imprisonment of 12 years.
