Civilian police sued over attack

PEKANBARU, Riau: Members of the Civilian Police (Satpol) with
the Riau administration have been reported to the local police
for attacking a public servant.

Raja Sapeloras, the victim, had filed a report to the local
police to allow them to follow up the case.

A group of Satpol personnel attacked Raja as he insisted on
entering his workplace at the governor's office, although he had
failed to show his ID card. As his excuse Raja said he had
forgotten to bring it. Internal rules require any public servant
to wear his or her ID on office premises.

Raja sustained an injury and was taken to a local hospital by
his colleagues. --Antara
