Ari's dossiers submitted to prosecutor

JAKARTA (JP): Police submitted the dossiers on the detained
grandchild of former president Soeharto, Ari Haryo Wibowo, or Ari
Sigit as he is familiarly known, to the Jakarta Prosecutors'
Office on Monday, an officer said.

Jakarta Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Anton Bachrul Alam told
reporters here on Monday that the dossiers were handed over
without the suspect because the latter was still undergoing
medical treatment at Kramat Jati Police Hospital in East Jakarta
for breathing problems.

Anton said Ari was charged under Emergency Law No. 12/1951 on
the possession of firearms and ammunition, which carries a
maximum penalty of 20-years imprisonment.

"The dossiers will be looked into by the prosecutors and if
the prosecutors think they are not complete, they will return
them to us. But if not, they will immediately seek a trial,"
Anton said.

Ari has been in detention since Aug. 14., after police found
70 live bullets in his residence on Jl. Rasamala in the plush
Menteng area of Central Jakarta following a search for Ari's
fugitive uncle, Hutomo "Tommy" Mandala Putra. (emf)
