Swindler at Bayu Asih hospital

Swindler at Bayu Asih hospital

From Merdeka

Some time ago, a visitor from Pabuaran, Subang district, to
Bayu Asih General Hospital in Purwakarta was taken by a young man
who pretended to be another hospital visitor to see a patient in
room 1 of the Flamboyan sector. The encounter cost the
unsuspecting visitor Rp 285,000.

The swindler's age is 23 to 28 years, he has short, straight
hair, his complexion is dark, and he is tall and thin.

He professes to be a religious teacher and likes to talk of
religious boarding schools in West Java. His modus operandi is to
lead visitors to the hospital bathroom, in preparation for
prayers in the hospital's mosque. He then takes money from the
trousers of the unsuspecting visitor, which the victim has to
leave unattended in the bathroom because the mosque lacks lockers
for clothes.

I urge visitors to the Bayu Asih hospital to take great care
of their possessions, especially first-time visitors from other
regions.

I deeply regret the actions of this young man, who cold-
heartedly cheated someone badly needing cash to buy medicine for
a member of his family. Since he made the mosque his stealing
ground, God will certainly punish him in a more painful way, here
on earth, and in the hereafter.

As for the Bayu Asih hospital, while it is celebrating its
66th anniversary the management should improve the services as
the hospital is the only such facility in the surroundings of
Purwakarta.
