The Jakarta Police have arrested five reported moneylenders for
allegedly robbing a potential South Korean customer, Kim Seong Rok, 49
at Somerset Apartments in Setiabudi, South Jakarta.
“We have
arrested five suspects, MA, MS, FG, FR and RA. Another suspect, FY, is
still at large,” Adj. Sr. Comr. Herry Heryawan, the head of the Jakarta
Police's flying squad (Resmob), said on Thursday as quoted by
tribunnews.com.
Herry said that FG was captured in Cibinong,
Bogor, on March 15; FR, MS and MA were arrested on Saturday in Pakuan,
while RA was detained in Ciawi.
Kim told the police that he had
arranged to borrow Rp 2 billion (US$218,000) from his alleged
assailants, who had promised to meet Kim at the apartment on March 2 to
loan him an initial Rp 1 billion.
However, when Kim arrived the
suspects allegedly attacked him and made off with a Rp 200 million
"administration fee" they asked the Korean to bring, according to the
police.
The police confiscated Rp 300 million in counterfeit
bills, four cars, a revolver and several cell phones from the suspects,
who face up to 15 years' imprisonment if convicted of violent robbery.
