The passenger was taken. Then after entering the toll road, AM gave a code to immediately carry out the action. AH went out and immediately arrested AD with a sarong tied at the end.

"In addition, it tied the victim's hand by using a shoe strap so that the victim could not fight back," he said.

The victim, who was helpless, was immediately used by the perpetrators by stealing AD's belongings. In addition, they also threatened the victim to kill him if he fought back.

After that the suspects took the victim's valuables. The car was again directed off the Tanjung Priok Port toll road and returned to Penjaringan. Then the suspect dropped the victim on the side of the road near the Pluit Permai gas station with his face covered with gloves and his hands tied," he continued.

The police, who received the information, immediately carried out an investigation until they finally arrested the perpetrator in less than 24 hours.
