Crime goes on<\/p>\n
A series of criminal acts occurred at several different
\nlocations recently.<\/p>\n
In Bogor, West Java, unidentified people broke into the house
\nof Herry Jumhaer on Saturday, but failed to steal anything, as
\nHerry's wife shouted for help. Herry hurt his fingers as one of
\nthe robbers stabbed him before escaping.<\/p>\n
A housewife, who was on a public transport vehicle heading for
\na money changer on Jl. Tubagus Angke, North Jakarta, could do
\nnothing but hand over Rp 4 million to an unknown man who pressed
\na knife to her neck. The robbery took place on Sunday and nobody
\nwas able to prevent it.<\/p>\n
Also on Saturday, two ojek (motorcycle taxi) drivers, without
\nresistance, gave their motorcycles to unidentified men. Hasan,
\nwho operated in Pasar Minggu, South Jakarta, gave his motorbike
\nto his customer, who in return, gave him Rp 200 and an amulet,
\nwhile Simon made no resistance when a man asked him for his new
\nmotorcycle -- complete with documentation -- near his residence
\nin Jelambar, West Jakarta.<\/p>\n
Simon became aware of what had happened only after the man had
\ndisappeared with his new motorbike. Both Hasan and Simon said
\nthey had been hypnotized.<\/p>\n
Sometimes we can be so frustrated surviving in this capital
\ncity, where the strong always win. The police have been working
\nhard to curb crime, but economic necessity may have encouraged
\npeople to commit it.<\/p>\n
