A man wanted by the police for his involvement in a stamp forgery syndicate ended his life at an apartment complex in Depok, West Java. The suspect, identified by his initials AB, was 36 years old. He leaped from the window of a room on the seventh floor and fell to the concrete parking lot below.

According to the Chief of Criminal Investigation at the Depok Metro Police, AKBP Made Gede Oka Utama, the fall caused severe trauma to the victim's head. The body was discovered on a Friday morning. Investigators examined the scene and concluded that the death was a clear case of suicide, with no signs of foul play from outside actors.

Based on statements from the authorities, the man had grown deeply afraid after learning that the police had designated him as a wanted fugitive. Investigators from the Polda Metro Jaya had been actively pursuing him for days before he was located at the apartment complex.

Inside the room from which the man jumped, the police discovered a stash of counterfeit stamps. The primary investigation into the forgery operation belongs to the regional police headquarters, and the local precinct will hand over the physical evidence gathered at the scene to the main case handlers.

The authorities have since contacted the family of the deceased and returned the body to them. The relatives expressed their grief and stated they accepted the tragic end of the young man as an act of self-destruction born out of immense fear.
