"Because after we named him a suspect, we would detain him, so we had to carry out a health examination and his urine results were still positive," he said.
This actor in the soap opera, Tukang Burur Naik Haji, admitted that he made a mistake about his actions in using drugs, so he had to deal with the police five times. Rio Reifan's confession was conveyed to police investigators after his arrest.
"He just said that he made a mistake or something like that. However, we will still investigate the real reason why he returned to using drugs and what the motive was behind it," he explained further.
Indrawienny Panjiyoga explained that the arrest of this 39 year old actor was based on public information. Rio Reifan was arrested at his residence in East Jatinegara on Friday (26/4) at 21.00 WIB.
"Based on information from the public, we looked into it. Coincidentally, when we made the arrest, it turned out that RR's brother was in the Jatinegara area, East Jakarta," continued Indrawienny.
As a result of the arrest, the police confiscated a number of pieces of evidence, ranging from crystal methamphetamine, ecstasy pills, to hard drugs.
