Bogor Police Chief Kombes Bismo Teguh Prakoso stated that the main perpetrator of the stabbing of Arya Saputra (16), a student at Bina Warga Vocational School, is still at large. "We ask that we immediately reveal (the main perpetrator). Three people have been arrested," said Bismo during a visit to the funeral home of the late Arya Saputra in Cijujung Village, Sukaraja, Bogor Regency, West Java, Antara, Monday, March 13. His staff has arrested three perpetrators of the stabbing which resulted in Arya Saputra's death. Two of them are students who ride with the main perpetrators when carrying out their actions. Meanwhile, one other suspect played a role in hiding the perpetrators of the crime. "The perpetrators of two people have been arrested, the other one is hiding, we also arrested them," he explained. Bismo said that his party was also trying to reduce the stabbing case so that it would not cause revenge. The Bogor City Police have given direct advice to Bina Warga Vocational School students to help maintain the conducive situation in the region. "We continue to say that there should be no countermeasures and also let the law enforcement process run professionally and we enforce the law. So, there is no reaction to revenge or retaliation," said Bismo. Previously, Arya Saputra was stabbed to death by an unknown person on Friday, March 10 at around 09.30 WIB, when he was about to cross from the end of the alley on the edge of Jalan Raya Jakarta-Bogor, precisely not far from the Pomad intersection, North Bogor District, Bogor City. One of the witnesses, Andre, explained that prior to the incident, Arya and five of his friends were about to cross the road. Then from the direction of Cibinong, three students rode motorbikes and attacked using swords. After receiving a sword on the cheek, precisely under the ear, Arya immediately lay down. The victim's colleague fled before returning to help the victim, assisted by local residents who stopped the ambulance, then took Arya to the FMC Hospital. "Yes, at the red light, students who use motorbikes immediately slash students who want to cross," said Andre.
