A police officer from Polres Tegal Kota, identified by the initial Aiptu N, is facing serious allegations of domestic violence and drug-related offenses against his partner, MAN, a 30-year-old resident of Cirebon, West Java.

The accusations, which gained viral attention through social media posts by lawyer Hotman Paris Hutapea, include severe physical abuse, such as allegedly pouring acid on MAN, causing burns. Furthermore, Aiptu N is accused of coercing MAN into consuming and preparing methamphetamine. Hotman Paris's posts suggest the alleged abuse and coercion occurred between 2023 and 2024, following a secret marriage between the two.

According to the allegations, Aiptu N also threatened to distribute intimate recordings of their relationship, which he allegedly made. The context provided suggests the abuse escalated after the secret marriage, fueled by arguments and the perpetrator's alleged deviant sexual demands, including a desire for multiple partners and recording their encounters.

MAN has officially reported the alleged crimes to the Bareskrim Polri. The Head of Polres Tegal Kota, AKBP Heru Antariksa Cahya, confirmed that Aiptu N, who serves at the Tegal Selatan Police Station, is under investigation. The Central Java Regional Police's Professional and Security Division (Bidpropam Polda Jateng) has taken Aiptu N into custody and is handling the ethical violations. The criminal investigation is being handled by Bareskrim Polri.
