Needless to say, the local community paraded the woman while naked. As a result, many local residents witnessed this heinous act.

4. Burned alive and died from burns
The procession of residents with women was carried out to the area of Kilometer 8 Lorong II, Klasabi Village, Sorong Manoi District, Sorong City. Once again, the mass carried out this heinous act by pouring gasoline on the woman’s body and setting the fire on fire so that the woman was burned alive without anyone helping her.
Police officers who were around there and knew about the incident immediately arrested the crowd, but unfortunately the woman’s life could not be saved because of the burns she suffered.
5. The police have 3 provocateur identities
As a result of this incident, the West Papua Regional Police sent a team to investigate the allegation.
“Yes, it’s true that the victim was burned and this resulted in the woman’s death,” said Head of Public Relations of the West Papua Police, Kombes Pol Adam Erwindi.
The West Papua Regional Police also claimed to have pocketed the identities of 3 residents who were suspected of being the provocateurs of this woman’s burning.
Unfortunately, the issue of this woman’s involvement in the kidnapping gang is a hoax.
