Commuter Blue Line Train Stoned, Window Shattered

The Cikarang–Kampung Bandan route of the Commuter Blue Line was vandalised when an unknown person threw stones at the train between Bekasi and Kranji stations. The incident shattered a train window.

“KAI Commuter strongly condemns the act of vandalism involving the throwing of objects at Commuter Line facilities,” the company’s Vice President of Corporate Secretary, Karina Amanda, said in a statement on Friday (6 November 2026).

The incident occurred on Commuter Line train number 5173, travelling from Cikarang to Kampung Bandan, at around 3.55pm local time on Thursday (5 November). The train was pelted with stones as it passed between Bekasi and Kranji stations.

“The vandalism shattered the window by the fourth door in the train’s eighth carriage. No passengers or staff were injured,” she said.

After receiving a report, security staff from Bekasi Station went to the location to secure the area and search for the perpetrator.

The broken window was temporarily covered with adhesive tape to ensure safety and allow operations to continue. “It will subsequently be repaired and replaced by rolling-stock maintenance staff at Cikarang Station,” she said.

KAI Commuter urged the public to protect railway facilities and infrastructure and not to damage them.

“Under Law No. 23 of 2007, perpetrators of vandalism against railway facilities or infrastructure may face prison sentences of three to 15 years,” she added.
