It was shocking that a grandmother in the Cimahi area of West Java was found to have kept the bodies of her husband and child for more than 1 year, when the police found the bodies of both of them had turned into bones.
At that time, dozens of residents in Gang Nusa Indah VI Blok 013 RT 007 RW 17, Melong Village, South Cimahi District, Cimahi City, were shocked by the discovery of 2 human skulls at Neneng's grandmother's house, they were seen crowding in front of the red-painted house.
SThe atmosphere in the residential complex was suddenly bustling after the discovery of two human skeletons in house number 117 on Monday morning (29/1/2018).
It is known that the house is occupied by a married couple, namely Nanung Sobana (86) and his wife Neneng Hatidjah (77). There are also three children in the house, namely Hera Sri Herawati (51), Erna Hendrasari (49), and also Denny Rohmat (43).
As reported kompas.com, The two skeletons found are known to be the figures of Grandma Neneng's husband, Nanung and also her daughter Hera. The discovery of the two human skeletons was first discovered by a number of officers from the Melongasih Health Center, one of them by Zacky Rahman.
Zacky said that Monday morning at around 08.00 WIB, he will conduct a health check on Neneng's family. Referring to the family card data, the officer at that time intended to examine the five occupants of the house.
But when she arrived at the house, Neneng refused on the grounds that her husband was sleeping. At that time Zacky believed because he saw someone sleeping in a blanket in the living room.
Then at 13.00 WIB, Zacky returned to visit Neneng's house. But again, Neneng refused again for the same reason.
On the next day Tuesday (30/1/2018) at 08.00 WIB, Zacky returned to Neneng's house accompanied by police officers and also the TNI. They deliberately invited the authorities because they were suspicious of Neneng and her family members' strange behavior and behavior.
Moreover, there was a very strong stench when the health workers came last Monday.
The arrival of officers and officers at that time also received a strong rejection from Neneng. He and his son Erna were very adamant about not wanting to open the door. In fact, they held the door of his house with a mattress. But finally after being persuaded, Neneng melted and finally wanted to open the door of her house.
The officers were very surprised when they saw 2 intact human skeletons which were none other than Nanung's figure covered in a blanket. and the other skull is known to be Hera which is right under Nanung's skeleton.
Police officers then immediately arrived to secure the scene. After being examined, the two skeletons were buried. And the police autopsy did not find any traces of violence against the two bodies.
And now Neneng is being examined at Dustira Cimahi Hospital. And while his two children are undergoing a psychiatric examination at the Cisarua Hospital.
The actions of Neneng and her two children who kept the bodies of Nanung and Hera did not make sense. However, according to residents, there was no strange or suspicious behavior from Neneng's family.
Timbul, who is the head of the local RT, said that, as far as he knows, Neneng and Sobana are natives of Melongasih. They were already living in the house here when he first moved to be precise in 2004.
Timbul also said that he was quite familiar with the figure of Nanung. Previously, Nanung was known to work as a lathe. However, several years ago Nanung stopped working due to a prolonged illness. Besides being known to be friendly, Nanung is also known as a person who is very diligent in patrolling.
"He is diligent in siskamling," said Timbul when met by Kompas.com, Thursday (1/2/2018).
Timbul also said that the last time he met Nanung was at a thanksgiving event for a resident in mid-2016.
"The last time we met was around the middle of 2016. I forgot the month. But the condition of his leg was swollen," he said
Timbul also said that he did not know that Nanung had died. In fact, the deaths of Nanung and Hera were never known to the residents.
People's question marks about the disappearance of Nanung and Hera's figures began when they smelled a foul smell around Neneng's house. Residents do not know for sure when the stench began to smell.
"Pak Nanung died, I don't know, as far as I know, because at first it smelled bad, but it smelled really bad," said Tati, Neneng's next door neighbor.
Tati also revealed that since Nanung's disappearance, Neneng's family suddenly became very secretive.
"When Mrs. Neneng comes out, I also like to ask questions, Mom, it smells like carrion there (pointing to the terrace of Neneng's house). But the answer is always, it's a rat carcass, it will disappear by itself," said Tati.
Neneng's house is currently surrounded by police lines. From the outside, the condition of the red-painted house looks unkempt. On the terrace of the house towered a large tree. And right in front of the door, you can see scattered items such as mattresses, tables, water tanks, and asbestos.
Adhering to a Certain Stream of Faith
It was revealed that the family actually adhered to a certain sect of belief. "This is from a neighbor's statement, so it is strongly suspected that he and his family have other beliefs," said Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Cimahi Police AKP Niko N Adiputra in his office, Tuesday (30/1).
Niko also explained that the allegation of following a certain belief was strengthened by the confession of Nanung's wife and family members who lived in the house. And according to Niko, they deliberately kept the bodies of Hanung and Hera in the room.
“Grandma has this principle, if someone dies, the soul is separated, but the body is there. So when he died he was put on the bed. When asked about his religion, Neneng said it's up to you what you call it. But he said that and really believed in it," explained Niko.
Police have also asked for information from a number of local residents around the scene. And the residents' information is uniform. They say that the family is 'different' from the others. "Actually, the residents there also admit it, but no one dares to enter, because they are residents of the house and have their own beliefs," said Niko.
According to AKP Sutarman information obtained from Neneng Hatidjah, that her husband Nanung Sobana had died around the end of December 2017. While her son Hera Sari Herawati had died in January 2016. However, if you look at the bodies that have become skeletons, it is suspected that both of them have died for more than a year.
