JAKARTA (JP): City police chief Maj. Gen. Noegroho Djajoesman
installed on Thursday Lt. Col. Sutarman, formerly head of the
city police career control unit, as the new Bekasi Police head,
replacing Lt. Col. Adjie Rustam Ramja.

Adjie is scheduled to be installed as West Jakarta Police
chief, replacing Lt. Col. Timur Pradopo, who will be appointed as
Central Jakarta Police chief, replacing Lt. Col. Iman Harjatna.

The latter will be promoted to head of the Jakarta Police
Intelligence Directorate, replacing Col. Aris Sampurno.

Speaking of Sutarman's appointment, Noegroho said: "The
replacement is a kind of tour of duty which will be experienced
by all officers."

He said the substitutions were needed to refresh senior
officers and ensure they were aware of all facets of police
operations.

"Our intention is to provide opportunities to officers to
experience leading a security force in an area, so that they will
develop as well-rounded leaders when assisting their
subordinates."

Inaugurations of the other officers will be carried out before
the People's Consultative Assembly's (MPR) General Assembly
Session, scheduled to be held in November.(emf)
