This, based on the results of the toxicological examination of Paryanto's body, is one of the victims of the murder of a money-making shaman," said Slamet Iswanto when accompanying Central Java Police Chief Inspector General Ahmad Luthfi reported by ANTARA, Thursday, April 6.

According to him, from the results of the labfor on behalf of the victim Paryanto, all the positive evidence contained Potassium Cyanide poison. This poison, which caused the death of the victims.
