The police have named a 15-year-old child with the initials K in Semarang City, as a suspect or child in conflict with the law over a fatal accident that killed a high school student in the capital city of Central Java named Vito Raditya Sastranegara.
Semarang Deputy Chief of Police, AKBP Yuswanto Ardi, said that the determination of the status of the child in conflict with the law was carried out after the police asked witnesses, experts, and evidence.
He explained that the fatal accident between perpetrator K who was driving the Yamaha R25 with police number H 3333 SNR and victim Vito driving a Yamaha Jupiter with police number H 3347 WR occurred on March 8, 2023, Jalan Mayjen Sutoyo Semarang.
According to him, from CCTV footage at three different points, it is known that K is speeding at speeds above the specified limit.
"From the road class where the accident occurred, the maximum speed limit is between 50 to 60 km per hour," he said as quoted by ANTARA, March 25.
In addition, he said, the R25 Yamaha driven by the perpetrators preceded a number of vehicles from the left before finally hitting the victim who was crossing.
"This K-child is known to not have a driver's license and is driving without a helmet," he said.
He said that the length of the process of investigating this case was due to the victims still having to undergo medical treatment, so they could not be questioned after the incident.
Even though he has been named a child in conflict with the law, he said, K is not detained because he is still a minor.
"The family of K's child also guarantees that the person concerned is cooperative in undergoing the legal process," he said.
Korban Vito Raditya yang sempat dirawat di RS Kariadi Semarang dilaporkan meninggal dunia pada 20 Maret 2023.
