"At the TKP, we did not find (cigarette butts) above. But later we will try to check again", said Police Commissioner Hasoloan to VOI at the SMPN 132 Cengkareng crime scene, West Jakarta, Tuesday, October 10.

Until now, the Cengkareng Police are still investigating the death of DR, a grade 3 student of SMPN 132 Cengkareng who died.
