Activity Participants
Alex and Radit are waiting for someone very important. The two detectives sat together at one of the cafes near Bareskrim's office. By 10 minutes, the person they were waiting for came as well.
The man was named Dimas, a former manager of a Bali Tropical restaurant 8 years ago. Dimas sat down in a friendly manner, he greeted the two detectives well. After a small chat, Alex then began to enter at the core of this meeting.
Alex wanted to ask more about the charity event, which had been the responsibility of the Word at that time. Includes a list of visitors and some documentation of such activities.
As a manager, of course, he knows the activity, although he did not jump directly for him it was a very noble activity. Lots of lower class people are very helped with the help of free basic food. Enthusiasm from month to month soared sharply, that's why Firman was popular among the lower community around Jakarta.
Dimas then submitted a complete bundle of documents, listing the beneficiaries of the charity for one year. Plus some photo documentation he still keeps on his work laptop.
Of course this was a fortune, because at that time Dimas was in charge of all restaurant operational reports, including the charity event. Moreover, Dimas is a typical person who is very caring for all work data even though it is no longer working there.
Before they say goodbye, Alex pranks inquiring about Tania and the Word's relationship. He wants to hear from other employees, he wants to know from many points of view. Hopefully, it brings an unexpected clue.
"For me the word of an ordinary man, does not attract much attention. Except the restaurant owner, the most extraordinary thing is certainly when entrusting the Word as the responsibility of charity activities.
I am the best S1 graduate of the state university, absolutely not in the boss lyrics," said Dimas with a faint smile.
"Why do you think Firman could be the restaurant owner's confidant?" ask Radit curiously.
"Mmmmmm. At that time many rumors circulated, Firman was a man who always went back and forth in prison, even when he was a teenager.
Do you know that the recipients of charity aid are mostly ex-convicts? maybe the boss's goal was to gather the ex-convicts for his social activities."
"Why should a former criminal?"
"Oh, my boss's taste was always strange" Dimas replied casually.
Alex and Radit were stunned, they finally began to understand if the class strata of charity aid recipients turned out to have their own patterns. It reminded them of the same pattern of the ten victims. They both went to jail and committed crimes.
After the meeting took about two hours, Alex and Radit finally decided to end it. As Radit was about to get out of the chair, he accidentally nudged his case notes on the table.
Instantly scattered many photos of cases scattered under the floor. Radit began to collect all the photos, even Dimas helped him willingly. Suddenly Dimas held a photo and showed them if he could see this man at a charity event.
"Aaaahhh, one of the recipients of the charity event is this father, of course I always remember his face," said Dimas enthusiastically.
Alex and Radit sit on the bench. Start glancing back at the photo that caught Dimas's attention. It turned out that the photo he was referring to was Sugeng, the taxi driver.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, Mr. Sugeng was not just receiving help. He always helped us to tidy up our chairs and tents when the event was over. He is a very nice guy and he enjoys helping.
I was a little surprised, when he suddenly had a big fight with the Word. Until all the logistics of the event are destroyed and fall apart. I don't know what causes a man as good as Mr. Sugeng can be very angry with the Word."
Dimas explained further, during the fight between Sugeng and Firman. Everything suddenly changed in an instant. The Word decided to quit his job. Charity events that have been forced to stop for unreasonable reasons. Of course at that time he never met again with Mr. Sugeng.
The two policemen were completely speechless. It turned out that all this time, taxi drivers who they thought were just ordinary people suddenly became important targets. They did not expect, if Nana and Sugeng turned out to have a bond in the past.
The case is getting closer to the end point. Nana's similarities and involvement are too much, making them again suspect. At once Alex felt guilty for Agus, because at that time he did not trust his subordinates.
********
After the meeting with Dimas produced many surprising results. The serious crime team returned to the office and was very busy gathering a lot of information.
They began to negotiate and analyze the important documents that had been submitted by Dimas. After nearly three hours of struggling with the documents, they finally began to find new answers.
First, the number of recipients of charity activities for one year if calculated as many as 1500 different people. After being sorted in more detail, it turns out there are nine names that are active in the event.
Nine of the names were serial victims, including the woman who became P S K, Siska. None other than the girlfriend of the Word herself. The nine victims came from all over Jakarta, where they were living unseemly and mostly unemployed.
One photo even shows all the victims, including Firman was taking pictures together with a familiar smile. It really shows that ten victims know each other. It's just that the police don't know exactly when and how they got to know each other.
Additional information that of course the police must dig deeper is Sugeng. The man had been in several documentation photos, but he was seen never mingling with ten other victims. He tends to be more alone and busy with his work.
Sugeng is an exception, he is not an ex-con and his criminal record is clean. Even before being active in this social activity, Sugeng was a loyal factory worker.
The man has been working in a shoe factory for 15 years and is already set to step up as head of the warehouse. As his career and economy rose, he abruptly quit the factory. Choose to be active in the charity work.
Of course it was unnatural and very strange, let alone known if she was a single parent. His wife ran away when she found out that the child he was born with had a heart defect. Alex is very confident that if Sugeng is not just into charity, there are other motives that he deliberately hid.
With the evidence they had obtained, it was enough to call Nana and Sugeng officially as witnesses. There was no reason to keep the woman from entering the police station. He should be able to block Nana as much as possible, there was no more room for opportunity for him.
**********
Agus had just returned from POLRI hospital, he was asked to bring his mother's last clothes and belongings. After the autopsy was completed, there was no reason for the police to hold the victim's personal belongings.
With a face full of sadness, he brought a cardboard box into the house. Sadness certainly returned to his heart, not when he opened one by one clothes and bags belonging to the mother.
She held back the cries, her hands trembling hugging her mother's clothes that had been soiled by blood. But the smell of Surti's body was still fixed in his kiss, he even broke out in tears.
It turned out that there was still one item that he had just realized, a cloth glove with fine feathers. He began to pensive, why his mother could wear fur gloves, why there was only one pair that the police found.
Agus tried to remember as hard as possible, it turns out he just realized, at lunch his mother had complained about his allergies recurrent. Because he previously consumed a lot of shrimp which resulted in his skin experiencing a red rash.
It had become a habit of his mother if he was experiencing skin rash, he would cover it with gloves. Because almost the entire body can be exposed to a red rash, including the hands.
He tried to find the gloves, into the pocket of clothes, pants and in the bag belonging to Surti's mother. Unfortunately, he still had not found a single pair of the right section. He quickly called the forensic officer, who was then in charge of his mother's autopsy.
After calling the related party, he found an unexpected answer. According to forensic officers who served in the CTF, said that they only found one pair of gloves.
Already searched everywhere, the forensics could not find the right glove. That's why, they assume that the killer deliberately hid the fur gloves.
According to their analysis, it could be that the glove kept a piece of evidence left behind. It could be fingerprints p3kill, DNA, saliva, strands of hair, or something that is very easy to identify by the forensic lab.
But it felt awkward, Agus was very sure if the killer did not bring the gloves. Because p3kill only bring one pair of gloves and let another pair just like that.
Moreover, after being traced again, the left glove is very clean and does not identify foreign DNA. Agus' feelings were not calm and continued to feel uneasy. He hurried out and picked up his bike.
Agus intends to return to the CTF and meet with Jono's contract. He wanted to make sure that the missing right glove was still there.
Arriving at Jono's contract which is still limited to police lines. Agus broke into the side window and managed to infiltrate the middle room of the house.
He started lighting the flashlight so that his vision would be more helpful. After searching all corners of the room, between household furniture, from top to bottom even though he still did not find his mother's gloves.
Agus did not give up, his hunch said if the gloves were deliberately left behind by his mother. Because he knew very well, if his mother often asked him about many things, including the world of investigation.
When he was still in training, he once explained to his mother, if DNA tests are very helpful in solving cases of murder p3. Moreover, the method of police investigation is increasingly advanced and sophisticated, the slightest trace left by the perpetrator can be very easy to identify.
Even patches of sweat and a drop of sp3rma can be identified through DNA testing. That was why, Agus was very confident that his mother would not die in vain. Surti's mother must have used her last intelligence as a human.
He began searching around the room closet, knowing that Surti's mother had been dragged from the closet into the living room. Agus believes that Surti's mother must have made physical contact that was not realized p3mkill.
He saw a basket of clothes near the closet. Agus saw a pile of dirty clothes piled up in the basket. Nimblely he began to search for the glove in the basket.
As a result, the fur gloves were found. Agus's hunch this time was not wrong, he found there was a small scratch on the fingertip of the glove. He even found a straight black hair. Of course it was not Mother Surti's hair, because her mother's hair was very curly and painted brown.
He immediately put the new evidence into a plastic bag. Rushed on his motorbike and headed for the national forensic agency for immediate identification. Agus believes, if there are many traces of DNA p3kill left in the gloves owned by his mother.
