Bekasi –
Police revealed that the robbery in Bekasi Regency was orchestrated by the victim’s driver. The main suspect, identified as NM alias Ngadi (50), claimed he committed the robbery out of resentment.
“The suspect, Ngadi (NM), was the driver for the victim’s husband,” said the Tarumajaya Police Chief.
Ngadi admitted that he planned the robbery because his wages were not paid by the victim’s husband.
“He was also upset after driving the victim’s husband multiple times without receiving payment,” he said.
Ngadi carefully planned the robbery. Two days before the execution, specifically on Saturday (12/7), he visited the victim’s house to survey the situation after learning that the victim’s husband was out of town.
“He surveyed the scene and met the victim under the pretense of just visiting,” he explained.
Victim Threatened and Taped
On Monday (14/7) around 11:30 PM, Ngadi carried out the robbery with an accomplice identified as SH.
“On the night of the incident, suspects NM and SH entered the victim’s house through a rear bedroom window. To conceal his identity, NM used the victim’s scarf and carried a kitchen knife taken from the scene,” said the Bekasi Metro Police Chief.
One of the suspects, NM, held a knife to the victim’s neck, while SH covered the victim’s eyes and mouth with clear tape.
“While threatening the victim, NM pressed the knife against her neck and said, ‘Stay quiet, don’t scream. If you scream, I’ll slit your throat.’ Meanwhile, SH sealed the victim’s eyes and mouth with tape,” he recounted.
With the victim immobilized, the robbers stole two motorcycles—a Honda Vario 125 and a Yamaha N-MAX—along with a box of Infinix-brand phones. They then fled the scene.
The next day, suspects NM and SH took the stolen goods to Semper, North Jakarta, to offer them to another suspect, MN. MN then led them to suspect S’s house in Rorotan, North Jakarta, where the stolen items, valued at Rp 4.5 million, were recovered.
