Drugstore robbed

JAKARTA (JP): Thieves broke into a drugstore Sunday in Pejompongan, Central Jakarta, and made off with Rp 150,000 and medicine worth around Rp 25 million (US$10,638).

Central Jakarta Police Chief Lt. Col. Abubakar Nataprawira said the burglars, believed to be more than two people, entered the Kimia Farma drugstore after breaking a window on the second floor of the building.

One of the employees found the store messed up the following morning, he said.

"We are still investigating the case," Abubakar told The Jakarta Post yesterday. (jun)
