The man with the initials UK (31) was arrested by Police in Surabaya for stealing his own car. Previously he mortgaged the car to someone else.[1]

Head of the Surabaya Polrestabes Criminal Investigation Unit AKBP Mirzal Maulana said the Toyota Agya car owned by the perpetrator had been mortgaged to the victim in the amount of IDR 30 million. "Before being handed over to the victim, the car was installed with a GPS by the perpetrator to find out where the car was," said Mirzal during his release at the Surabaya Polrestabes, Thursday (3/8/2023).[2]

The perpetrator always monitors the whereabouts of the car from the GPS tracking application. On Sunday (16/7), the victim used the car with his family to a mall in the South Surabaya area. "When the car was parked, the perpetrator used a spare key that was not handed over to the victim, then came to the car and took it," said Mirzal. The perpetrators easily took away the car armed with the spare key. To trick the parking attendants, the perpetrator admitted that his parking ticket was lost.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
