54,400 porn VCDs seized at port

JAKARTA (JP): Tanjung Priok Port Police arrested a 38-year-old
Jakartan in possession of 54,400 pornographic video compact discs
(VCDs) when she arrived at the port from Batam Island on Monday
afternoon.

Port police chief Lt. Col. Edward Aritonang identified the
suspect as Yusnawati, who carried the materials on the Sinabung
that docked at the port on Monday at 2 p.m.

"You people should read the titles of the VCDs. There was
Pengantin Baru (Newlyweds), Atik, Gadis dari Ancol (Atik, the
Virgin from Ancol) and Rasain Goyangnya (Feel the Shaking). They
gave me such a laugh," Aritonang told reporters.

Pornography is banned but adult VCDs and sexually explicit
magazines are easily available in many cities and towns.

Aritonang said the arrest was made during the police Kilat
Jaya routine operation on Monday.

He added that the operation netted 141 hoodlums and ticket
scalpers, a man with three kilograms of marijuana and seven
people carrying sharp weapons. (ylt)
