Fatal robbery enacted

JAKARTA (JP): Police re-enacted Saturday the Jagorawi toll
road robbery, which took place on Oct. 11 last year and claimed
one life, without the two main suspects .

The two suspects, identified as Bud alias Win and Sal, alias
Is, are still at large and two officers played them in the
reconstruction.

The reconstruction, which involved three suspects, IJA, Mc and
Ag, was attended by the suspects' lawyer Agustinus Mudjiman.

Mudjiman said the reconstruction ran smoothly despite the main
suspects' absence.

Bogor Police Chief Col. Dadang Garnida said the two fugitives,
residents of Cilodong, Bogor and Bandar Lampung, Lampung, were on
the list of wanted people, Antara reported.

"It would be better for them to surrender," Dadang said.

The robbery took place when three unidentified men, one with a
gun, shot to death Zaenuddin Lesmana, a private employee, and
robbed him of Rp 230 million (US$99,000).

The victim's companions, Tjetje Tadjuddin and Nurman Lubis
escaped unhurt.

Police found a bullet shell from an FN 45 gun at the scene
before questioning them. The FN 45 is a type of gun used by the
Army.

Tjetje and Nurman were then declared the suspects and
detained. Tjetje was tortured to death in police custody. A
police lieutenant was sacked over his death.

Dadang Garnida said Saturday police had not revealed where the
robbers got the gun allegedly used to shoot Zaenuddin. (sur)
