Alleged Other Victims of Bandung Woman's Captor Come Forward, Confessions Go Viral

Following the case of YTR (29), who was allegedly held captive and tortured by her boyfriend TH, several other women have come forward claiming to be victims of the same perpetrator. YTR is currently receiving intensive care in an isolation room at Hasan Sadikin Hospital (RSHS) in Bandung due to serious injuries found across almost her entire body.

According to a post shared on the Instagram account @Sultansahbanaiman, one woman recounted knowing the perpetrator three years ago. She claimed she was tortured at a lodging in Garut and forced to engage in sexual acts without being given food or drink. The woman also stated that the perpetrator verbally abused her with harsh language when she ignored his chat messages.

She further explained the perpetrator’s modus operandi, describing him as initially treating women very well and being a smooth talker. She noted that when she first met him, he was overweight and had a tattoo on his back. Another woman also shared her unpleasant experience, stating that the perpetrator had contacted her via Facebook and WhatsApp, claiming to be a friend of her friend, and was surprised to learn he lived very close to her, just a different hamlet away.
