JAKARTA (JP): City police chief Insp. Gen. Sofjan Yacoeb
installed Sr. Comr. Beno Gelapang on Tuesday as the Jakarta
Police's Mobile Brigade (Brimob) chief, replacing Sr. Comr.
Bambang Krishermanto.

Jakarta Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Anton Bachrul Alam said the
change was made due to a need to refresh Brimob's structure
internally. At the same time, Krishermanto was promoted as head
of the National Police's training and education center with a new
rank of brigadier general.

The new Brimob chief, Beno, was previously commander of
regiment II of the National Police's bomb squad (Gegana) based in
Kelapa Dua, East Jakarta, Anton said. (emf)
