Burhanuddin said that the actions of the suspects had caused a loss to the country's economy. This includes the high cost and scarcity of cooking oil.
"So there is a decrease in household consumption and small industries that use cooking oil and make people's lives difficult", he explained.
The four suspects were immediately detained in two different places. Indrashari Wisnu Wardhana or IWW and Master Parulian Tumanggor are being held at the AGO branch of the Salemba Rutan, while Stanley and PT are at the Salemba Rutan at the South Jakarta District Attorney's Office.
"For the next 20 days starting today", he said.
