Man found dead in Cipayung
JAKARTA (JP): A man was found dead on a bridge near the
Jagorawi toll road, Cipayung, East Jakarta, the local police
chief reported yesterday.
According to Major Tisnayoga, chief of the Ciracas police
precinct, the man, who was later identified as Dukayu, 30, a
resident of Cilangkap, East Jakarta, was beaten to death with a
blunt object.
"We found that he had bruises on his back and head and that
his nose had been bleeding," Tisnayoga said.
Police have not been able to determine a motive for the murder
of Dukayu, who was, reportedly, unemployed. However, police
strongly suspect that it was an act of revenge, since the
victim's effects, including a Rp 20,000 banknote and five gram
gold necklace were not stolen.
In an unrelated incident, an unidentified man was found dead
in South Jakarta yesterday with a gunshot wound in his body, the
local police reported.
The two bodies have been taken to the Cipto Mangunkusumo
General Hospital morgue for autopsies.(01)
