Robbery on toll road

Robbery on toll road

From Merdeka

Toll roads apparently have inspired certain people to commit daring holdups, resulting in the deaths of their victims, businessmen in both cases. First it was a Jakarta real estate businessman on the Jagorawi toll road. More recently, it was a Bandung gold trader on the Padalarang-Cileunyi toll road.

In the latter case, there were two deaths: the gold trader and his driver. The motive for the shooting is not known, because Rp 3 million in cash and 40 pieces of jewelry were found at the scene of the crime.

The cases cannot be solved immediately because there appears to be a lack of agility and accuracy in the search for evidence leading to a solution of the crimes. We are looking forward to a speedy solution of the robberies in order that the public can be assured of the safety of toll roads.
