Abducted boy released

TANGERANG: Tangerang Police arrested a man who abducted his
girlfriend's three-year-old boy and was attempting to flee to
Teluk Betung, Lampung, on Thursday. The boy's identity was not
revealed as he is still a minor.

The police needed nine hours to catch suspect Haryanto, 26, a
resident of Teluk Betung, after receiving a report from the boy's
mother, Fauziah, 23.

Tangerang Police detectives' deputy chief Insp. Kustanto said
that the suspect had not demanded a ransom.

Fauziah had just returned home at 2 a.m. from the night spot
in which she worked in Tangerang when her sister told her that
her son had been taken by force by Haryanto.

She quickly reported the case to the police. The suspect and
the boy were eventually found at a bus stop on Jl. M.H. Thamrin,
Tangerang, at around 10 a.m.

The suspect was about to board a bus to Merak when he was
apprehended.

Haryanto admitted that he had abducted the boy, saying "I want
Fauziah to stop working in the nightclub and start a new life
with her son and me in Teluk Betung". -- JP
