Investigate The Fire At The Palangka Raya Bawaslu Office, The Police Adjusted The Information Of 12 Witnesses With The Results Of The Forensic Lab

A total of 12 people were examined as witnesses following the burning of the Palangka Raya City Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) office.

Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Palangka Raya Police, Kompol Ronny M Nababan, said that the results of the examination would later be matched with the results of the Forensic Laboratory (Labfor) of the East Java Police and the National Police Headquarters.

"On Friday (July 21) yesterday, the East Java Regional Police Forensic Laboratory team and the National Police Headquarters carried out a crime scene investigation at the scene, with the aim of knowing the cause of the burning of the Palangka Raya City Bawaslu office," he said in Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, Tuesday, July 25, which was confiscated by Antara.

He said, while waiting for the results of the investigators' laboratory, they also continued to examine those who were witnesses in the incident.

Regarding the issues of political escalation and being deliberately burned, his party said it had nothing to do with it but he advised his party to wait for the results of the laboratory so that the incident could be concluded later.

"If the results of the initial crime scene conducted by the Palangka Raya Police and the Central Kalimantan Police, the source of the fire came from an archive warehouse. We are both waiting for the results so that the cause of the incident can be known," he said.

Ronny ensured that the fire that hit the Palangka Raya Bawalu office on Thursday, July 20, would be of concern to his side.

"This has indeed become the attention of the leadership. Then our personnel are also focused on investigating the burning of the Palangka Raya City Bawaslu office," he said.

Based on observations in the field, police lines are still installed around the fire area.

Meanwhile, the Palangka Raya City Bawaslu office has temporarily moved to Jalan Seth Adji, precisely in the Bawaslu office of Central Kalimantan Province
