Anonymous leaflet in Ujungpandang

UJUNGPANDANG, South Sulawesi: Maj. Gen. Agum Gumelar, chief of
Wirabuana military command overseeing Sulawesi, called on the
public over the weekend to ignore anonymous leaflets that urged
people to boycott next month's election.

The authorities had tracked down people they suspected of
printing and distributing the leaflets, he told journalists at a
"coffee morning" session he hosted.

He said the authorities were collecting more concrete evidence
to catch the suspects.

"We don't want to act against any suspect without sufficient
evidence," he said.

Similar leaflets have also been circulated in Palu in Central
Sulawesi, Bandung, Jakarta and Bogor. (31/37)
