Zarina

The rearrest of Zarina, who escaped on Aug. 8, makes us happy. The police deserve praise for their well-done job, and this improves their image in the society. This is a real challenge to the police to find out more about who Zarina is. We also hope the authorities can uncover the people behind her activities. Hopefully, it would then become clear where Zarina got the 29,677 Ecstasy pills from and who the customers were.

Zarina could not only ruin people's lives through the planned distribution of the pills, but she also caused Capt. Ade Sutiana, the head of the Tangerang Police Detective Unit, who escorted her, lose his position.

According to Attorney General Singgih, Zarina must be severely punished. Yet the case should be carefully dealt with because it might be linked to the global mafia network.
