The teenage son of Sumarti Ningsih, a victim of double killer Rurik Jutting, continues to be haunted by his mother’s murder nearly a decade ago. Sumarti was held captive by Jutting in his luxury Hong Kong apartment, where she was tortured and killed. Mohammed Hafidz Arnovan, who was just five years old at the time, expresses his anger towards Jutting and demands that he take responsibility for his crimes. Sumarti’s family, who lives in poverty in Indonesia, is seeking compensation from Jutting or his family, but they claim he has declared bankruptcy to avoid paying. The British Government has been accused of failing to provide support to Sumarti’s family.
Sumarti left Indonesia in 2010 in search of work in Hong Kong to support her family back home. After working as a domestic worker, her visa expired, and she began working in the sex industry to make a living. Jutting, a former banker, killed Sumarti in his apartment, along with another victim, Seneng Mujiasih. Both victims were Indonesian sex workers. Sumarti’s family, devastated by her loss, were informed of her death by the police, and they have struggled to make ends meet ever since. Jutting was found guilty of the murders, sentenced to life in prison, and expressed regret for his actions during his trial.
Jutting, a Cambridge graduate, filmed himself boasting about being a “part-time rapist and murderer” and described his gruesome acts in detail. He confessed to torturing Sumarti and Seneng before killing them, claiming he enjoyed inflicting pain on them. Despite his remorseful statements during his trial, Jutting’s actions have left a lasting impact on the families of the victims. Sumarti’s father and son have demanded that Jutting take responsibility for his crimes and provide compensation to the family before being allowed to return to the UK. The details of the murders shocked the world when they were revealed in court, showcasing the inhumane and brutal nature of Jutting’s crimes.
Sumarti’s family continues to struggle financially, with her absence leaving a void in their lives. Mohammed, now 14 years old, expresses his anger and sorrow over losing his mother at such a young age. The family’s grief is compounded by the lack of support from the British Government and the challenges they face in seeking justice and compensation for Sumarti’s death. Jutting’s actions have left deep scars on the victims’ families, who are navigating the aftermath of the brutal murders. Despite Jutting’s imprisonment, the pain and loss caused by his actions remain unresolved for the families of Sumarti Ningsih and Seneng Mujiasih. They continue to seek closure and justice for their loved ones as they strive to rebuild their shattered lives.
