In another peculiar incident on 22nd February 2024, the Jakarta firefighters encountered two 13-year-old female students from an East Jakarta junior high school who were locked in their parents’ handcuffs.

The incident unfolded during a practical exam at the school, where one of the students brought their parents’ handcuffs to align with their aspirations. After the exam, while playing with the handcuffs with a friend, the key broke, rendering the handcuffs unopenable.
