Papua Cenderawasih Military Police have detained a soldier, identified only as SJ, for allegedly killing a pregnant woman and her two children in Bintuni, West Papua in August.

“Yes, the officer has been detained and is under investigation by the military police and will soon face trial,” Papua Military Commander Maj. Gen. Hinsa Siburian told The Jakarta Post on Thursday.

Hinsa said the military command had cooperated with police from when the case emerged until the officer was detained. 

The potential motive behind the murder and how many people were involved in the killing is not yet clear. 

Frelly Dian Sari, 26, who was four-months pregnant, and her daughter Cicilia Putri Natalia, 4, and son Andhika, 2, were found dead at their house with stab wounds on their bodies on Aug. 27. Frelly’s husband was working out of town on that day. -
