Jakarta – The Jakarta Police say they will drop the investigation of sexual harassment allegations made by three National Land Agency (BPN) employees. "There was not enough evidence to pursue the case," Jakarta Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Baharudin Djafar told The Jakarta Post on Thursday.
Jakarta Police criminal investigation division chief Sr. Comr. Gatot Edi Pramono said that an official SP3 letter had been issued halting the investigation. "We issued the letter yesterday," Gatot said.
Three women at the BPN filed a report with the Jakarta Police, accusing their superior, G, of sexually harassing them over the past year. One of the victims' lawyers, Shanti Dewi, said that she had not received the SP3 letter from the police.
Shanti said that the women's legal team had only received a letter stating that the investigation would likely be dropped due to a lack of evidence. The letter was dater Nov. 18, four days before the police held a "case expose" to obtain more evidence.
