Jakarta (Antara Bali) - Jakarta's Regional Police (Polda Metro Jaya) revealed alleged human trafficking involving minors who were brought from Kalimantan to Jakarta.

"The two perpetrators brought the two victims from Kalimantan to Jakarta," Jakarta's Police Adj. Sr. Comr. Hando Wibowo said here on Tuesday on the phone.
