Former senior Indonesian National Police officer Ferdy participated in the murder. He held the position of Head of the Profession prior to becoming involved in the case. He worked for the Indonesian National Police’s Security Division as well.

Despite the fact that he was a well-known police officer from Indonesia, the news of the death of his bodyguard shocked everyone. The police officer, who killed the 27-year-old man and shot him with 12 bullets at the time, has now been identified as the perpetrator.
