Police are investigating the death of a teenager who was found by the side of the Jakarta-Bogor Highway in Bogor Regency on Sunday night, October 25, 2026. The teenager had reportedly just returned from watching the Persib versus Garudayaksa FC match at Pakansari Stadium. That same night, two residents were also reportedly injured in an attack by an unidentified group in Bogor City.
Teenager found dead
According to IDN Times Jabar, the victim, identified by the initials ARK, was found dead by the side of the Jakarta-Bogor Highway at Kilometer 50 in Cimandala Village, Sukaraja District, Bogor Regency. The victim was described as a Persib supporter who had watched the match at Pakansari Stadium.
Kumparan.com reported that the victim was a 10th-grade student at SMK 2 Grafika Dasa Semesta from Kampung Duku, Sukamantri Village, Tamansari District. Tamansari Police Chief First Inspector Eka Duta Beliawan said the victim left the stadium at around 10 p.m. Western Indonesian Time and was reported dead on Sunday night. The victim was later buried in the Sukamantri area.
Kumparan.com’s report mentioned a suspected clash that led to a slashing. However, the full chronology and cause of death remain under police investigation, so this account is not yet a final conclusion.
Police gather information
Bogor Police Chief Adjunct Senior Commissioner Arfan Zulkan said police were gathering witness statements and examining every piece of information obtained. The measures are intended to establish the chronology and identify parties suspected of being connected to the victim’s death based on valid evidence.
Arfan also visited Cibinong Regional General Hospital to ensure that the victim was being handled appropriately and to meet the family. According to IDN Times Jabar, he returned to the hospital with Bogor Regent Rudy Susmanto on Monday, October 26, 2026.
Police asked residents with information about the incident to file a report. The public was also urged to remain calm and not be provoked by unverified information while the investigation is underway.
Two residents attacked in Bogor City
In a separate incident reported by Kompas.com, two Bogor Regency residents identified by the initials MHR, 21, and MYP, 18, were intercepted by an unidentified group on KH Abdullah Bin Nuh Street in West Bogor, Bogor City. They were taking part in a supporters’ convoy after watching the same match at Pakansari Stadium, although they were reportedly not wearing Persib merchandise.
West Bogor Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Didin Komarudin explained that the two victims fell from their motorcycle after panicking when they were intercepted by a group wearing white shirts. The group then attacked them with machetes and sickles.
Bogor City Police Public Relations Section Head Second Inspector Imam Dwi said MHR sustained an injury to his left knee, while MYP was injured in the back of the waist. Both were taken to the nearest hospital for further medical treatment.
Investigations remain underway
The teenager’s death in Sukaraja and the attack on two residents in West Bogor both occurred after the Persib versus Garudayaksa FC match at Pakansari Stadium. Although the incidents occurred within a similar timeframe, existing reports have not stated that they were connected.
The police investigations are expected to clarify the sequence of events, the cause of death, and the parties responsible. Information from witnesses and the public is expected to help law enforcement establish a complete account of the events in accordance with applicable regulations.
