Holdups on Jl. Gatot Subroto

Holdups on Jl. Gatot Subroto

From Kompas

The frequency of holdups in the vicinity of the pedestrian flyover bridge in front of the Indonesian Red Cross and the Manpower Ministry on Jl. Gatot Subroto is strongly on the increase. There was even a case of rape of a woman holdup victim a few weeks ago.

The situation in the area is even more dangerous during holidays and in the evenings.

I appeal to the related security agencies to take the necessary steps for ensuring safety in the area and to the Jakarta city administration to provide adequate street illumination.
