Reveals Dump Truck Theft Cases at 2 Different Crime Scenes
Rembang - The Criminal Investigation Unit (Satreskrim) of the Rembang Police has successfully uncovered the theft of two dump trucks that occurred overnight at two different crime scenes. The two crime scenes are Bogorejo Village and Karas Village, Sedan District.
Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Rembang Police, AKP Heri Dwi Utomo, said that in the disclosure of the case, his party arrested six suspected perpetrators. Now they are huddled in the custody of the Rembang Police.
"Four suspects are thieves, while two are suspected of being stolen goods," he said, Sunday (16/10/2022).
The suspects come from Lampung, Sedan District, Rembang and Demak Regencies. In particular, the residents of Sedan Sub-district, apart from being a location marker, were also involved in the theft.
“But the original resident of Sedan, Rembang, also lives in Lampung. Sometimes I just go back there,” said the Head of Criminal Investigation Unit.
The Head of the Rembang Police, AKP Heri Dwi Utomo, confirmed that this case was revealed thanks to the efforts of his members to conduct an investigation.
After receiving the dump truck theft report, the police checked the CCTV cameras at the Rembang border in the direction of Semarang and Surabaya.
"It turns out that the direction of Surabaya is not visible. What is seen is a stolen truck, heading towards Semarang," he said.
After that, members of the Resmob Satreskrim Polres Rembang developed a search to CCTV toll roads, to the Merak-Bakauheni port, until finally it was detected that the truck had been taken away in the East Lampung area.
“So all CCTV cameras were seen, from Rembang, Semarang, even outside Java. It takes patience," he said.
Two stolen trucks, one unit was sold to the Lampung area for Rp. 90 million, while the other one was sold by the perpetrators to Demak. The evidence of a truck from Lampung that has been changed in color has been secured.
"For those sold to Demak, we are still investigating. But we've got our identity. That's why it's better to surrender immediately," he said. During the crime, the group of perpetrators used the Toyota Avanza, which has now also been secured at the Rembang Police Headquarters.
