A Man Found Hanging in a Resident's Garden in Cinunjang Village, Gunung Tanjung District, Tasikmalaya. TASIKMALAYA - A man with the initials AN (32), a resident of Sukamaju Village, Gunajaya Village, Manonjaya District, Tasikmalaya Regency, was found dead with his neck hanging from a tree.

This incident occurred on Wednesday (11/27/2024) at around 11.00 WIB in Datarkupa Village, Cinunjang Village, Gunung Tanjung District, Tasikmalaya Regency. Gunung Tanjung Police Chief, IPTU Deni Susanto, explained that the victim was found by witnesses in a terrible condition, hanging with a piece of black cloth rope from a broken tree branch. Based on his identity, the victim worked as a casual laborer. According to the victim's wife, AN left the house on Tuesday (11/26/2024) at around 13.00 WIB, with the excuse of "taking a job."

Before leaving, the victim had time to say goodbye to his child. Not long after that, at around 13.15 WIB, the victim sent a message via social media to his wife with the message, "pang jemputken di gunung" (pick me up at the mountain).

The victim's wife only found out about the message on Wednesday morning at around 04.00 WIB. Attempts to contact the victim by telephone were unsuccessful because the number was no longer active.

The victim was first found by two witnesses, Nasrul (34) and Jaka (34), after receiving information that the victim's motorbike was found parked in the bushes near the road in the Gunung Tanjung area. The two witnesses, together with the victim's family, then searched the area around the location.

"The victim was found hanging from a tree with his neck tied with a black cloth rope on a broken branch," said IPTU Deni. Officers from the Gunung Tanjung Police and the Tasikmalaya City Police Criminal Investigation Unit Identification Team immediately went to the scene of the incident to conduct a crime scene investigation (TKP) and collect statements from witnesses. Until this news was published, the motive behind the suicide was still under investigation
