JAKARTA - Bareskrim Polri investigators make every effort to reveal the cause of the fire at the Attorney General's Office (AGO) building. One of them is by using satellite.
"We ask the IPB fire experts to use a satellite that can find out the initial hotspot," said the Director of General Crimes at the Indonesian National Police, Brigadier General Ferdy Sambo, to reporters, Friday, October 23.
This satellite technology was used because the results of the witness examination indicated that there were several hotspots. However, referring to the results of the use of satellites, it was found that one hotspot was the cause of the fire.
According to Ferdy, this satellite technology is often used in uncovering fire cases. One of them is the case of land fires.
"This is usually used to check fires in the land, can sniff them out and find out where the hotspots are," said Ferdy
"We are also coordinating with IPB to use this satellite because there is a lot of speculation outside the hotspots so we have to use technology whether there are really many hotspots," he continued.
Previously, the fire that burned the AGO building came from cigarette coals that were dumped by construction workers into polybags.
Initially the suspects who were renovating the Personnel Bureau hall were collecting trash from their work. Then, the garbage is put into three polybags or large plastic bags. Including a cigarette tip that is probably still slightly lit.
Then the suspects left the hall. They came down from the 6th floor of the AGO building.
With the embers in the polybag, it burns other waste. A large fire appeared and burned the objects around it.
In the end, an even bigger fire burned several parts of the AGO building.
In this case the National Police Criminal Investigation Unit named eight suspects. Five of them are construction workers.
The five construction workers have the initials T, H, S, K, and IS. They were named suspects for violating the no smoking rule in the personnel bureau hall.
While the other three namely, UAM as the foreman, R who is the Director of PT ARM and the Commitment Making Officer (PPK) of the Attorney General's Office, NH.
The determination of the suspect against UAM was reasoned because they did not supervise the five craftsmen while they were working. Meanwhile, R and NH were named suspects for making an agreement to use a dash cleaner cleaning fluid which is said to accelerate the combustion process.
The suspects were charged under Article 188 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 55 and Article 56 of the Criminal Code with the threat of 5 years in prison.
