Pickpockets in public vehicles

Pickpockets in public vehicles

From Kompas

I am a daily commuter on public vehicles like PPD buses,
Metromini, and Kopaja and feel that pickpocket operations have
increased in buses and at bus stops.

The condition on routes via Jl. Kuningan, Jl. Gatot Subroto,
Jl. Jend. Sudirman and Jl. Thamrin, is really quite appalling.

Pickpockets operate in groups of six to ten men and they seem
very daring, as if they don't care if they are seen.

I appeal to the respective security department to eradicate
such criminal operations. I also welcome the idea of placing
undercover police officers at every bus shelter because the
pickpocket situation is so dire.
