Motorcycle theft and gang crime in Indonesia

Overview

Law enforcement in the Depok and Jabodetabek regions has conducted several operations targeting motorcycle theft and violent crime.

In early October 2026, Depok police arrested four suspects following a gang attack in the Pancoran Mas district. A group of approximately 20 members intercepted a motorcycle, causing the victims to fall and sustain multiple slash wounds from weapons such as a sickle. The suspects failed to steal the vehicle due to its keyless ignition system.

Later in the month, the Polda Metro Jaya Regional Police arrested 20 suspects linked to 23 separate motorcycle theft reports across the Jabodetabek area. Authorities detained 19 adults and identified one minor as a fugitive. Recovered items included 17 stolen motorcycles, mobile phones, and various tools used in the crimes.
