Plundering bus passengers<\/p>\n
From Media Indonesia<\/p>\n
As is my habit, I took the Mayasari Bhakti 03 air-conditioned
\nbus from Kalideres to Pulogadung. On March 30, arriving at the
\nWayang Bharata bus stop in the Senen area at 6.30 p.m., the bus
\nwas forcefully stopped by a group of uniformed high school
\nstudents.<\/p>\n
The driver was not willing to open the doors. But some of the
\nstudents positioned themselves in front of the bus while others
\nbanged on the bus. Then, the students were allowed onto the bus.
\nThey were about 50. They told the driver that they wanted to
\navoid the attack of another school's students. The driver
\nobligingly switched off the lights so the students would not be
\nvisible to their enemies.<\/p>\n
What happened next took every passenger by surprise. At
\nCempaka Putih, the students went on a pillaging spree. They took
\nwallets, wristwatches, pagers and walkmen. They then quickly got
\noff the bus and fled. Most of the victims were women. The
\npassengers could not do much as they were under threat.<\/p>\n
The incident causes a lot of concern. What will such students
\nbecome in the future? They give a bad image of high school
\nstudents in general.<\/p>\n
Student street brawls have been common fare for several years.
\nIt seems that now robbing passengers has become a novel
\nattraction for them. How can such irresponsible acts be
\nprevented? Although it is our common responsibility, it is only
\nfitting that security personnel pioneer preventive actions.<\/p>\n
