TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The South Jakarta Metro Police and the the Pesanggrahan Police on Friday announced new evidence in the murder case of Metro TV editor Yodi Prabowo.
“Latest information from the Metro Jaya Police say they discovered a piece of hair, which can be hair from the suspect or perhaps from the victim. It could be hair from investigators, we are investigating it,” said the police sector’s criminal unit chief Irwan Susanto on Friday.
According to Irwan, the piece of evidence was discovered near Yodi’s body beside the Ulujami JORR toll road, Pesanggrahan.
The case investigation has entered its seventh-day with a total of 29 witnesses questioned. The body of Yodi Prabowo was discovered last Friday on the side of the toll road.
An initial autopsy by police forensics suggested that Yodi succumbed to several stab wounds in his chest and neck. A kitchen knife was also found near Yodi’s body.
