Activities at Bekasi Timur Station have returned to normal. Several passengers were seen boarding KRL trains from Bekasi Timur Station.

Previously, the Argo Bromo Anggrek train collided with a stationary KRL at Bekasi Timur Station on Monday (27/4) night. The incident began when a taxi became stuck under the KRL at a crossing not far from Bekasi Timur Station.

The taxi becoming stuck under the KRL caused the KRL at Bekasi Station to wait. The Argo Bromo Anggrek then arrived and collided from behind.

The train accident resulted in 16 fatalities and dozens of injuries. Bekasi Timur Station was subsequently closed for evacuation processes. KRL services on the Jakarta-Cikarang route were shortened to only reach Bekasi Station.
