JABAR - Garut Resort Police (Polres) arrested 81 thugs who had been reported to be troubling the public. They practice bullying, illegal parking, and other acts of thuggery.

He said that a number of personnel from the Garut Police were deployed and spread to a number of places where it was suspected that many activities of groups of people or thugs had disturbed the comfort and public order.

Those who were arrested, he said, were immediately transported using two Dalmas trucks to undergo further legal examination and urine tests.

"There was one person who brought the psychotropic type, and we did all the urine tests," he said.

He revealed that the thug eradication operation was a follow-up to public reports that were worried about the activities of thugs committing burglary, collecting vehicle parking fees and other actions.

The police chief emphasized that the operation to eradicate thugs would continue, and would not even hesitate to be shot if they resisted the officers.
