        "content": "<p>West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi has announced a bounty for members of\nthe public who manage to disable criminals, such as muggers, with a cash\nprize of up to Rp 50 million. The announcement was made via his personal\nsocial media account. The policy was adopted as an effort to create a\ndeterrent effect for criminals while increasing public vigilance amid\nconcerns over rampant criminal activity. In addition to urging residents\nto be more alert, Dedi has instructed all security personnel, from the\nCivil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) to the Fire Department (Damkar),\nto increase readiness at strategic points. Night patrols are to be\noptimised with rotating lights switched on as a sign of the officers\u2019\npresence in the field. \u2018Firstly, patrol cars must be on standby every\nnight, their hazard lights must remain on. Satpol PP and Damkar must be\non standby at strategic points to anticipate any possibility at any\ntime. Residents should conduct neighbourhood watches, guard themselves\nand be guarded by others, this is our basic principle of mutual\ncooperation,\u2019 Dedi said in his post. In addition to alerting officers,\nKDM, as Dedi Mulyadi is familiarly known, has also prepared rewards for\nresidents who manage to disable criminals, such as thieves, pickpockets,\nmuggers, and robbers. The value of the rewards prepared ranges from Rp 5\nmillion to Rp 50 million. However, Dedi stressed a key condition for the\nreward: the perpetrator must be handed over to the police alive so they\ncan be processed according to the law. \u2018Furthermore, I am offering a\nbounty to all West Java residents who can disable thieves, pickpockets,\nmuggers, and robbers. We have prepared a reward ranging from Rp 5\nmillion to Rp 50 million for those who manage to thwart these criminal\nacts and hand over the perpetrators to the police alive,\u2019 he said.<\/p>",
