Man Who Terrorised Neighbours in Depok Named as Suspect
Police have elevated the case of vandalism against a resident’s home in Pancoran Mas, Depok City, West Java, to the investigation stage. The perpetrator, identified by the initials FAA, has been named a suspect.
“The suspect we have named is one person with the initials FAA, and we have carried out all legal processes,” said AKBP Made Gede Oka Utama, Head of Criminal Investigation at the Depok Metro Police, to reporters at the Depok Metro Police headquarters on Thursday (13/8/2026).
AKBP Made said seven witnesses have been examined. In addition, a number of pieces of evidence, including fragments of a fence, have been seized and processed legally.
“We have examined as many as seven witnesses. Then, the evidence, including fragments of the fence, has been seized and everything is proceeding according to the applicable regulations,” he explained.
As a result of his actions, the suspect is charged with criminal damage and/or threats of violence under Article 521 of the Criminal Code and/or Article 448 of the Criminal Code of Law Number 1 of 2023.
Police revealed the results of the examination of the suspected perpetrator of the vandalism of a resident’s home in Pancoran Mas, Depok City, West Java. The two had frequently disagreed or quarrelled since 2024.
“As I said some time ago, this problem has been going on since 2024. They have been in disagreement since that year. The reported party also has his own version, that there was also a bit of disagreement and quarrels,” said AKBP Made Gede Oka Utama when contacted by reporters on Monday (20/7).
AKBP Made said the victim and the reported party had frequently clashed since 2024. The dispute had also been mediated by several parties, but it continued until the vandalism of the victim’s fence.
“And in 2024 there was also a dispute between the reported party and the complainant. However, no police report was made because it was reconciled at that time by residents, the RT/RW, and also the Bhabinkamtibmas. Well, the quarrel has continued until now,” he explained.
Since then, Made continued, the two parties have continued to disagree. Because he could no longer tolerate the alleged perpetrator’s behaviour, the victim finally filed a police report.
“So, if that is the reported party’s version, that is the result of the examination I read earlier. That indeed, if you say he held a grudge, it is not a grudge, but rather that since then they have continued to disagree and often quarrelled,” he said.
“Finally, the incident last week occurred. The victim felt he could no longer tolerate it and had been mediated repeatedly. He finally filed a report regarding the vandalism,” he added.
As is known, the home belonging to the family of Azis Suraji in Pancoran Mas, Depok, became the target of terror by his neighbour. The terror even led the Azis family to sell their home.
The terror by the neighbour went viral on social media. From circulating CCTV footage, a man can be seen throwing a helmet at the neighbour’s house, which belongs to the Azis family. Before throwing the helmet, the man had been pacing back and forth on a motorbike in front of the victim’s fence.
On a different day, the same man was seen dumping rubbish at the victim’s house. Several residents tried to intervene in the man’s actions, but a commotion ensued.
