etectives from Medan Police in North Sumatra investigating the stabbing to death of a woman, allegedly by her own 12-year-old daughter, conducted a preliminary reenactment on Sunday.
Medan Police chief Sr. Comr. Jean Calvijn Simanjuntak said detectives were still waiting for the results of a psychological assessment of the girl, who has not yet been named a suspect. Other than psychologists, the investigation also includes staff from the Indonesian Child Protection Commission (KPAI) and other relevant teams.
“Hopefully, the detectives can receive the assessment results this week,” he said on Monday.
“We are waiting for the assessment results, so the entire process is clear.”
