The ranks of the Bogor City Police Satreskrim admitted that they were hunting for the perpetrators who allegedly kidnapped a 5-year-old boy from Cijeruk, Bogor Regency. The kidnapping incident itself was reported to have occurred in a public place, to be precise on Juanda Street in front of Toko Ria Busana, Bogor Tengah District, Bogor City on Monday, May 29, 2023 yesterday. "We have received the report or information. Currently we are conducting an investigation and looking for witnesses," said Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Bogor City Police, Kompol Rizka Fadhila, Friday, June 2. "We have also checked the location (the kidnapping site) according to the victim's aunt's confession," he continued. The incident of the kidnapping of a 5-year-old boy from Bogor began when the victim and his family, his grandmother and aunt went to play on Monday, May 29, 2023. Then, while standing in the pedestrian, right in front of the Ria Busana Toko, suddenly there was a man who immediately pulled the victim. Without a base, this man also carried the 5-year-old boy on a motorcycle, where on the motorbike there was another person sitting behind him. Seeing this, the victim's aunt tried to scream for help from local residents. But unfortunately, no residents helped him.
