Metro Jaya District Police Officer, Kombes Wira Satya Triputra, shared that the victim’s body was wrapped up and dumped in an empty shop.

According to Jakarta Bisnis, the story of the murder began when the child and his 22-year-old mom, SD, and his 19-year-old dad, AZR, went to beg at a mini market.

The child vomited after finishing a milk beverage given by an unknown person.

They felt ashamed after being confronted by a store worker

Wira mentioned that the mini market worker’s comment, telling the child’s parents to take responsibility for what happened, made them feel both ashamed and embarrassed.

“The worker told them to clean up the vomit, and at the same time, warned that they wouldn’t be allowed to beg in that area anymore if anything like this happened again.”

He added that the child was killed by being hit with a blunt object.

Both suspects have been arrested and face a maximum prison sentence of 15 years.
