Bodies of jobseekers found<\/p>\n
PURWOKERTO, Central Java (JP): The remaining six bodies of
\nnine people who were aspiring to work overseas and allegedly
\nkilled by their recruiting agent have been found, police said
\nSaturday.<\/p>\n
Police had scoured nearby rivers but the victims were found
\nelsewhere in the province. The remains of Tinggal, Syarif and
\nArifin were found in Kebumen, the body of Taka was found in
\nPurworejo and Amijaya Firdaus' body was found in Tegal. The sixth
\nmurder victim, Hamzah, was found in Adipala, Cilacap.<\/p>\n
It is yet to be explained how the remains of the victims,
\nkilled at different times between December and early March,
\nreached these areas, but local police in the respective areas
\nhave reported that bodies were found in their jurisdictions a
\nmonth ago. Banyumas police claimed the bodies were those of the
\nmissing.<\/p>\n
On Sunday relatives of the deceased were scheduled to take
\nhome the bodies after autopsies had been conducted.<\/p>\n
Banyumas Police chief Lt. Col. Johnny Hutauruk said the
\nsuspect, Aidit, was still being questioned on whether there were
\nother victims.<\/p>\n
The suspect had told police that he had killed the nine people
\nbecause they had continually pestered him about going to work in
\nMalaysia, Singapore and Brunei Darrusalam as he had promised.
\nThey paid him millions of rupiah, but he said their passports
\nwere yet to be issued. He claimed that he killed them in panic
\nwith the help of an accomplice, who has also been arrested. (45)<\/p>",
