Zika and Jessica

Nowadays, Indonesia is startled by two major events. It is very hectic and it fulfill most of the news. They are Zika Virus and Jessica.

Maybe Zika Virus is known by most of the people in many countries. As this virus outbreak in Brazil and suspected as the reason of the increase microcephali cases there. Even there is no scientific evidence that Zika Virus has important role in microcephali, many people assume the virus is the cause of microcephali case. However, it maybe is too early to say that they have correlation and need further research to proof it.

Unfortunately, Indonesia was found to have a case of Zika Virus as well. The discovery started when an outbreak of dengue in Jambi led researchers from Eijkman Institute to investigate and examine the case. One of the samples with clinical manisfestation was found negative of dengue. Further examination discovered that the sample contained of Zika Virus, which has the same family with dengue virus. As people worries of Zika-Microcephali correlation, the broadcast of warning message was spread sporadically and got major attention of media.

As for Jessica, her case began when 27-years-old woman was murdered in a cafe. The woman was killed by cyanide found in her vietnam coffee. This was surprising for the public because of rarity of cyanide-using kill case and difficulty of commoner having cyanide.

Jessica was a friend of the victim who was there with the victim. Actually, there was another one victim friend beside Jessica, Hani. But Jessica was the most potential suspect (public hypotheses) because :
1. Jessica arrived first while Hani arrived with the victim
2. Jessica ordered the beverages for her friends before their arrival. This is considered as strange because I think, Indonesians are more likely to ask for ordering meal (so when they arrive the food is ready and longer time to prepare the meal) than beverages
3. Jessica, at first, couldn't cope with the police when they ask her to become witness
4. Jessica smiled while interviewed. Conversely, Hani cried.
5. etc...

I couldn't say that Jessica is the suspect because of the evidence leak. Furthermore, plot twist may appear in future remembering the coffee maker can be a suspect too. Or maybe the victim was not the real target.

Well, I really  hope the suspect will be punish equally with his/her crime.

And Indonesia, has its peace again. Ummmmm..... Hopefully~
