Part 8/14:
Initially, Abdul Gani was considered a victim of internal conflicts or betrayal. But investigations revealed a more complex picture: the deaths seemed orchestrated, potentially linked to disputes over money, authority, or exposure of secrets within the padepokan. Abdul Gani's body was found in a shallow grave, within a local farmland, with facial remains unrecognizable due to decomposition.
Similarly, Ismail, another key figure, died under suspicious circumstances, and evidence suggested that both men had accumulated significant debt or had threatened to expose financial irregularities. Their deaths sent shockwaves through the community, leading to a crackdown on the padepokan and opening investigations into the possible motives—greed, revenge, or suppression of scandal.
