January 25, 2012 Police probing Sunday’s horrific traffic accident that left nine pedestrians dead have widened their investigation to the ownership of the car involved and have raised the possibility that the driver may have stolen it.
Adj. Sr. Comr. Sudarmanto, head of enforcement for the Jakarta Police’s traffic directorate, said the driver of the vehicle, Afriani Susanti, 29, had been found without a driver’s license or a valid vehicle registration and only a photocopy of an expired registration document.
He said the photocopy identified the owner as Deden Riohendi, a resident of Cipinang in East Jakarta. “But after we checked with him, it turned out that he had sold the car in 2009,” Sudarmanto said.
A check of the police’s vehicle database showed it had been sold to a Buniarti Kosim, a resident of Kelapa Gading in North Jakarta.
Sudarmanto added that police questioned Buniarti on Thursday but were still unable to link the owner to Afriani, who remains in police custody along with the car’s three other occupants at the time of the accident.
The policeman said Afriani claimed to have been lent the car through a friend, identified only by the initial E. “But again, we can’t find a link between E. and [Buniarti] or [Deden],” he said.
He added that at this point, police were not ruling out the possibility that the car had been stolen from Buniarti.
Afriani faces charges of manslaughter and drug use. A urine test conducted by police showed up positive for ecstasy, and the result was corroborated in a subsequent blood test by the National Narcotics Agency (BNN).
The three passengers have also been detained on drug charges.
The four were headed home from the Stadium nightclub in West Jakarta shortly before noon on Sunday when Afriani swerved into the curb and mowed down a group of pedestrians, killing nine of them.
In her first public statement since the incident, Afriani apologized to the families of the victims in a letter read out by her sister, Ayudyah Safitri, at a news conference on Wednesday night.
In it, she “apologized for everything,” saying that “maybe my apology means nothing. But, please let me say, ‘sorry, sorry, sorry’ ....”
The driver’s brother, Agus Hari Susanto, also revealed that the family had been attempting to contact the families of the deceased and injured to offer them compensation.
Police, however, have recommended against the move, warning the family that it still remained too dangerous for them to do so at this time.

| The suspect (afriani susanti) |
My opinion:
i think it was a tragic accident that has killed 9 people and 4 another is injured,and about the suspect the name is afriani susanti she is a foolish woman with no sin because she is rush against 13 pedestrians which all of them is teenager. I think if she is not consume drugs this accident will not happen and because the effect of drug afriani hit these pedesrians,so from now on the only thing we can do is pray for the victim and keep away from drugs!!
