TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - A 38-year-old woman has plunged to death from the 37th floor of New Roy Lippo Apartment in west Jakarta. “Allegedly committed suicide,” Kembangan Police Criminal Investigation Unit director Adj. Comr. Asmoro Bangun said yesterday.


The alleged suicide was indicated by a note found in the women’s pocket. The note contains phone numbers of her sister, mother and other family members. “Sorry all, bye bye,” a message on the note says.


A security officer was the first person to found her body. The officer promptly called the woman’s personal driver who has his telephone number included in the note.


The police have also examined the scene and questioned some witnesses. The body has been sent to Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital for an autopsy.
