JAKARTA (JP): Tangerang police yesterday morning arrested two

\nbringing the number of people in custody for the offense to six.<\/p>\n
Chief of the Tangerang police chief, Lt. Col. R. Hari

\nof the money had allegedly been used by the suspects.<\/p>\n
Police also seized a minibus believed to have been the getaway
\ncar.<\/p>\n
The six suspects have been identified as Corporal Hutagalung
\nfrom the Cikupa Air Defense Artillery Detachment and his civilian
\ncompanions: Sahat Silabat, Buha Sihombing, A. Rahman Sinaga,
\nSiregar and Timbang Simbolon.<\/p>\n
Sinaga, the security guard, played an important role in the
\nrobbery, police said. He allegedly cooperated with the others
\nwhen arranging the robbery, police said.<\/p>\n
Before arresting Sinaga, police discovered he had been in a
\nstrange position when the robbery was reported. (bsr)<\/p>",
