It is 27 April 1997, and a woman is found dead in a sugar cane plantation in North Sumatra.
The discovery of her body will lead to the arrest of Indonesia's most prolific serial killer, Ahmad Suradji aka Dukun AS, a shaman who performs spells for desperate patients who visit him in a sleepy hamlet on the outskirts of the city of Medan.
In Part 2 of Indonesia's Worst Serial Killer, Hukum travels to Dusun Aman Damai to meet the people closest to the case.
