The East Jakarta Satpol PP will install parking and trading sign bans, as well as will add street lights in order to prevent criminal acts in Pasar Rebo Flyover, Ciracas Sub-District, East Jakarta.

We supervise the place this month because there have been 3 times of robbery actions and 2 people died this year

"Lighting is very lacking there, thus many motorists park their vehicles until the evening due to beautiful scenery," said Head of Facility and Infrastructure Section for East Jakarta Satpol PP, Agus Sadiki, Friday (5/16).

Sadiki continued that his side is only conducting patrols from 6-9 AM and 4-9 PM. "We supervise the place this month because there have been 3 times of robbery actions and 2 people died this year," he told.
