Previously, the Metro Jaya Police had transferred Roy Suryo and Tifauziah Tyassuma, also known as Doctor Tifa, to the South Jakarta District Prosecutor’s Office. This transfer followed the arrest of the two suspects on Friday (19/6) the previous week. The Director of General Criminal Investigation at Metro Jaya Police, Commissioner Iman Imanuddin, explained that the arrest of Roy and Tifa was part of the process of handing over the suspects and evidence from investigators to the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor’s Office. This step was taken after the case file had been declared complete, or P-21, by the prosecutor’s office. ‘Furthermore, to ensure the presence and availability of the suspects during this handover process of suspects and evidence proceeds smoothly, investigators must confirm the whereabouts and presence of the suspects,’ Iman said last Friday. Following their arrest, Roy and Tifa were taken to the Police Hospital in Kramat Jati for a medical examination. Based on the results, doctors recommended that both undergo inpatient care to ensure their health conditions remained stable. Subsequently, the South Jakarta District Prosecutor’s Office decided not to detain Roy and Tifa. The Head of the South Jakarta District Prosecutor’s Office, Marcelo Bellah, stated that the decision was made in accordance with applicable mechanisms and regulations. ‘In accordance with the prevailing mechanisms and provisions, the suspects are not being detained,’ Marcelo said. However, both Roy and Tifa are required to report once a week.
