The police are still gathering information on the assault of Abdul Muhyi, 21, in which the attacker cut his penis off on Tuesday, an officer said on Wednesday.
"This is an aggravated assault case. We have to find the perpetrator," Pamulang police chief Comr. M. Nasir said.
The resident of Sawangan in Depok, West Java, was hospitalized at the South Tangerang General Hospital after he came to the Pamulang public health clinic early on Tuesday with his penis already cut off.
Muhamad Mursal, a surgeon at the hospital, said the patient arrived long after the safe period to affix the penis.
At first, Muhyi mentioned a woman's name, a resident of Kemuning, West Pamulang, but according to Nasir, she did not recognize the victim.
"We are collecting information from witnesses at the crime scene in the Jalur Pipa Gas area in East Pamulang subdistrict," Nasir said.
The area is known as hangout for transvestite sex workers.
