RI navy detains crews of Assie ship: Indonesia's navy has detained an Australian ship and its crew after allegedly finding guns and ammunition on the vessel which was anchored in the religious-violence-wracked Maluku islands, an official said Thursday. The ship, MV Alfred Nobel, was found moored Wednesday near the Christian village of Amuhusu on Ambon island, navy chief Col. Buyung Lalana said. He said the vessel was towed to Halong naval base, just east of Maluku capital Ambon, after authorities found three rifles and 134 bullets on board. "Preliminary investigations found they don't have complete documents."
