The Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of Senen Police, Iptu Asep Dadang, explained that suspect F alias Ucok was a recidivist of a similar case who had just been released from a prison cell in Salemba.

"Just leaving the prodeo hotel in Salemba, a sentence of 1 year. The same case," said Iptu Asep when confirmed by VOI, Tuesday, July 18.

In the action, the suspect looked for a special target for a gay man (the same sex).

"The perpetrator F alias U used a fake name named Ilham 23 and used fake photos in the Tinder application. The target was teenagers (both types)," he said.

In the action, F is not alone. He was assisted by a friend with the initials MA alias Andis to pick up the victim and take the victim's cellphone.

"The method is to become an acquaintance boy through Tinder, it's normal. Now there are many same-sex applications, parents have to be aware of their children," he said.

Pelaku F alias U mencari sasaran karena sebatas modusnya saja. Sedangkan pelaku masih menjadi pria normal.

"(The perpetrator) is just the mode. Not yet had time to (date), he (the perpetrator) just wanted to take the victim's cellphone. The Tinder or walla application was like that. As a result, the perpetrators were for one day's needs," he said.

Meanwhile, from the confession of suspect F alias U, he deceived the victims by pretending to be inviting men to date.

"Never (interference) is just a mode. Same type, (victims) are boys too. The target is the same sex, boys are just boys. At first I was told by my friend, that's right (find a gay guy). If you get it, if not, that's it," F told VOI.

Meanwhile, in the action, F has carried out the action 3 times and managed to get a different brand of cellphone.

"Just playing a Tinder again after being released from prison. Only 3 times this time, mobile phones are sold in Jatinegara. First, you get xiomi, both huawei and the third iPhone 11," he said.
