Body of foreigner yet to be repatriated

KUPANG, East Nusa Tenggara: The body of a New Zealand national
who died in a Kupang hotel three weeks ago is still being kept at
a hospital in Kupang, the capital of East Nusa Tenggara province.

The remains of Brett McMoohan, 48, could not be sent home due
to a lack of funds, said the spokesman of East Nusa Tenggara
Police, Comr. Marthen Radja, on Wednesday.

"The New Zealand Embassy should be responsible for taking it
home," said Marthen.

Moohan was found dead in a hotel in Rote Ndao regency, East
Nusa Tenggara province in early October. An investigation into
the cause of death is still underway. -- JP
