The wife of a Pamulang Police officer who said she was raped faces a lie detector test after detectives identified irregularities in her story.
“We will use a lie detector to question her,” Jakarta Police detective chief Sr. Comr. Gatot Eddy Pramono said on Wednesday, as quoted by kompas.com.
Police-appointed psychologists would also examine EK, the wife of the Pamulang precinct commander, given what Gatot said were repeated “irrational” statements that contradicted police findings on the scene.
“All the things that she said did not make any sense. They did not match,” he said.
EK alleged that her rapist entered her house through a window by forcing it open with a screwdriver, Gatot said, although detectives only found chip marks inside the house and found only EK’s fingerprints on the screwdriver she said the rapist used.
EK, a teacher, claimed that a man broke into her house in Depok, West Java, on Sunday at dawn, bound and gagged her before sexually molesting her and running off with her cellular phone.
In the morning, EK and her husband, who was on duty at the time the incident took place, filed a report about the robbery and rape with the Depok Police. (awd)
