SUKABUMI - Women and Children Protection Unit (PPA) Sukabumi Police Satreskrim arrested four women from Sukabumi Regency, West Java who were syndicates of people trafficking crimes (TPPO) abroad.

"These four suspects came from two different TIP cases, namely Dl (55) and AT (42), the two suspects were arrested after the report No. Pol: Lp/B/308/Vi/2023/Spkt/Res Ski/West Java Police on June 27, 2023," said Sukabumi Police Chief AKBP Maruly Pardede quoted by ANTARA, Monday, July 17.

Meanwhile, two other suspects, namely Ni (39) and El (43) were arrested after the police report No. Pol: Lp/B/316/Vii/2023/Spkt/Res Ski/West Java Police on July 3, 2023.

Maruly explained that the suspects DI and AT were suspected of carrying out TIP in November 2022 in Halimun Village, RT001/006, Warungkiara Village/District, Sukabumi Regency with the victim, AN, aged 27 years, a resident of Halimun Village.

In carrying out the action, the two suspects recruited the victim by being offered by Dl to work to the United Arab Emirates, precisely to Dubai with the lure of large wages. Victims who were interested finally agreed to become Indonesian migrant workers.

Then after undergoing a health check and passport making, AN was dispatched to Dubai. But it turned out that after arriving in Dubai, the victim was diverted to work in Syria.

Worse, while working in Syria, the victim never got the wages promised by the two suspects, so he complained to his family in Sukabumi and reported the case to the Sukabumi Police. From the suspect's hands, a Samsung A51. and Samsung A12 cellphone were confiscated and a passport.

Meanwhile, Ni and El had the same mode as the two victims, namely Sr (33) and Er (41) residents of Gobang Village, RT 007/008, Pasirsuren Village, Palabuhanratu District, Sukabumi Regency.

The action carried out by the two suspects was carried out in November 2022 in Palabuhanratu District. The perpetrator El offered the victim and admitted that he could dispatch the two victims to work in Malaysia.

Then the victim was introduced to Ni who is a sponsor. In order for the victim to leave, the two suspects persuaded him with the lure of a bonus of IDR 5 million and also while working in Malaysia, he would be paid IDR 5 million/month.

However, in reality, the bonus money received by the victim was used as a debt by the suspect by cutting the victim's wages while working in Malaysia. The two victims departed for Malaysia in November 2022, the severity of SR's work often experienced violence perpetrated by agencies in Malaysia. Meanwhile, Er had to work without a penny.

Because he couldn't stand it, the victim finally asked his family for help in Sukabumi and reported this case to the Sukabumi Police and was successfully repatriated in March 2023. From the suspect's hands, an Infinix cellphone, an Iphone 13 Promax and an ID card were confiscated.

For their actions, the four suspects are threatened with 15 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 600 million in accordance with Article 2 and/or Article 4 and/or Article 10 and/or Article 11 of UURI Number 21 of 2007 concerning the eradication of TIP.
