T

he police have named five members of a motorcycle gang as suspects in an alleged attack on employees of a barbershop in Depok, West Java, on Sunday.

The five suspects are reportedly members of a motorcycle gang calling itself Pulang Pagi, which means going home in the morning.

"The five have been detained," Jakarta Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Argo Yuwono said on Tuesday as quoted by tempo.co.

The police questioned 12 gang members before naming the suspects. The suspects are identified as Danu Lesmana, 23, Ahmad Rifai, 23, Riki Rizki Fauzi, 18, M. Indra Kurniawan, 24, and M. Faqih, 25. The other seven were released without charge.

"There are two other suspects identified only as SY and MRF who remain at large," Argo said, adding that he had yet to find out about the motive of the attack.

The police have confiscated four motorcycles, glass shards from the scene and CCTV footage as evidence. Investigators have also obtained medical reports from the victims.

The footage shows that a group of people barged into the Odysen Barbershop and attacked its employees.

The attack left three employees, identified as Rizal, Yadi and Wirya, with minor injuries. (fac/wit)
