Fuad family receives donations

YOGYAKARTA: Donations and condolences continue to flow in for the family of Fuad Muhammad Syafrudin, the reporter who was stabbed to death by a gang of thugs last month.

Yesterday, cash donations came from the Bandung-based Pikiran Rakyat daily newspaper on behalf of various organizations in the capital of West Java.

Donations have also come from the Association of Indonesian Journalists and organizations in North Sumatra, Central Java and Jakarta, Antara said.

Police are still investigating the murder, which some believe was provoked by Fuad's critical articles in the Yogyakarta-based newspaper Bernas. (emb)
