Nephew caught for stealing
JAKARTA (JP): A man was arrested for allegedly breaking into
his aunt's house in Tangerang, West Java, to steal her gold
jewelry, police said.
City Police spokesman Lt. Col. E. Aritonang said yesterday the
man made away with 128 grams of gold.
Aritonang said Ilham Fauzi, 18, broke into the house Sunday
afternoon when the aunt, Kuncil, was on vacation in Ciater, West
Java.
He said police officers, who brought a bloodhound, were
deployed to investigate the robbery as soon as Kuncil reported
the case to the nearby police station.
"The dog lead the officers to Ilham's house, which is located
only about a hundred meters away from Kuncil's," Aritonang said.
Both police and Kuncil thought at first that the dog led them
to the wrong person, he said.
But Ilham confessed during questioning that he was the robber,
he said.
Ilham was being held in detention at Tangerang Police precinct
for further investigation, Aritonang said. (cst)
